Doesn't Do Windows | |

| Time: 05:00 EST/10:00 GMT | News Source: Forbes.com | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Lindows is an operating system for Microsoft haters and cheapskates. Its flaws make Windows seem like a genuine bargain. Here's a novelty: a PC that displays an icon for a floppy disk drive even though the machine doesn't actually have one. Welcome to the operating system called Lindows . That's not a typo. Lindows with an "L" is the Linux-based brainchild of Michael Robertson, founder and ex-chief executive of MP3.com. Its fanciful name landed Lindows.com in U.S. court to defend itself--thus far, successfully--against Windows creator Microsoft , which demanded injunctive relief for fear that the upstart's moniker might confuse the public. | ||
