What does GNU stand for?

Question

What does GNU stand for?

Answer 1

I've always wondered the same thing!

I don't think it is the animal - I think that it stands for something and I've never been able to find what that is either.

In computers, there is group called GNU (pronounced GA-new) that stands for "GNU's Not Unix" - I don't know if the snowboard company was a fan of that group or if it is unrelated.
