Lindows unveils DVD application | |
|
||
| Time: 12:10 EST/17:10 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Alex Harris | ||
|
Lindows.com, which makes a consumer-oriented version of the Linux operating system, introduced on Tuesday an application that allows computers running the Lindows OS to play commercial DVDs. The San Diego-based company said LindowsOS 4.0 can automatically detect and launch the DVD player application. In addition to DVDs, the application can play CDs, video CDs and multimedia files including MP3, WMV and AVI, the company said. Lindows OS is based on Linux, an open-source variation of the Unix operating system. Although Linux's effect is apparent in the server market, it is considered complex for consumer desktop PCs. Lindows, one of the best-known companies trying to bring Linux to consumers, is trying to change that. | ||
