Why do you hate Lindows XP

<< < (5/5)

Ok..well... just because they dont openly release it for free, doesn't mean you actually HAVE TO pay.....

maybe the just exceeded their bandwidth and cant afford to host it?  :confused:

Right now Microsoft is the biggest bully on the block. Any lawsuit involving Microsoft, especially one they start I would like nothing more to see Microsoft come out on the losing end.

It's not the price of Lindows, it's the path that they are on. They appear to be following step by step in Microsoft's foot prints. There have been indications of GPL violations and rather than embrace and credit (not pay, but give credit to) the people who wrote 99.99% of their OS they try to hide where that software came from. Lindows just "smells" bad all the way around.

Not to mention the fact that I can't stand the CEO and to me appears to be a Bill Gates wanna-be. In my opinion he's only looking for a way to get rich quick off of the blood and sweat of others. Again, not against the rules but at least give credit where credit is due. Free software programmers don't ask for much as they write software to help other people solve their own problems free of charge, not solely to help some idiot get rich.

I could have it wrong, but that's the way I've seen it up to this point and I've been following them from the beginning.

XxD:
umm you do know... the CEO of dildosOS is the former CEO OF mp3.com..... what a dirt bag!!

voidmain:
Of course I know that. I don't know if they still have it up but Lindows.com always had a portrait of Michael Roberston on the front page. How many companies put their CEOs picture on the front page? He has an ego problem.
