Ah, but it's "enough" to make a useful computer without needing any GNU tools to boot and run it, if you so desire :) It's also the "core" of what you are using, without it, your computer would be useless. That being said, yes, you can use GNU tools and GNOME on other operating system kernels (HURD, BSDs, etc.), but that would severely restrict your choice of hardware, and slow down your useful output by wasting power and resources needlessly, so it's not recommended.
