These questions are ambigous. Any response I could came up would fit on them. The relevant question here is not what "someone generaly means", but rather what "something is". The following question would make more sense: "Do you think Linux is something massively different than NetBSD?" (You could respond to it, btw) -- Robert Millan "[..] but the delight and pride of Aule is in the deed of making, and in the thing made, and neither in possession nor in his own mastery; wherefore he gives and hoards not, and is free from care, passing ever on to some new work." -- J.R.R.T, Ainulindale (Silmarillion)
