Lindows repulses me; it tries to be just like Windows (just look at this screenshot, and, if you must run Windows apps, why not use Windows? Don't imitate MS; that's just sick; they should at LEAST try to make something original. Besides, a real MS-killing OS would be called something more appropriate, like Curtains. Lindows will cost 100 bucks when it comes out. Hardly "free software," huh?
Well, at least it gives me something to laugh at.

Awwwwwwwwww, too fuckin' bad dumb ass! Now maybe you understand how Apple felt when Windows came out....

hey, this the best thing xpiss has done yet/*ever???*/, he helped me name my soon to be linux distro. nevermind that he talks out of his ass owell. lindows is a good idea, but it still needs alittle help. and about him saying that X11 has problems, yes it has a few like the mozilla font crash but other then that it is great. try to get windows to let you get around BESS huh, it is not perfect, nothing is but it is better then windows could ever do/*please tell me that :eek: MS-UX :eek: will never come to be*/. if you are so concernded about it get off yer ass and fix it yourself, thats why the source is open.

but its proprietary (mostly) and costs $$$

With you Linux geeks it's always about Debian huh? Sorry, but I don't have time to set up that confounded OS; just standing 2 minutes in #debian at irc.openprojects.net shows how much trouble people have with it. Debian doesn't even have KDE 3 included (woody won't either, you'll have to wait a year and a half for sid to come out, haahh)
PS what is this crap about Windows XP crashing? That's never happened to me.

lindows bothers me
the point was to get off the ms train
