Linspire So far this series has checked out Lindows 4.0, Libranet 2.8.1 and MEPIS 2003.10. Meanwhile both Lindows.com and Xandros have been busy little beavers and spat out new versions of their software, each on the same day. Since I am trying to find the best bang for my buck in a Debian based commercial distro, and since I am already a registered user of LindowsOS, I felt compelled to download a free copy of Lindows 4.5 to have a second look at this thing.

RE: Hardware problems ..

I have read about 5 different LindowsOS reviews and according to them it seams like Lindows got problems with hardware detection & configuration, which often leads to error on installation.

If you encounter any trouble with Lindows installation, try SUSE it's the best of the Linux breed!

But I'm watching Lindows very very closly, because I belive that they might got what it takes to grab one or two percent of the desktop market.
