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.

A gaping error in the article is that RPM is not a proprietary file format. The reason why Red Hat, Mandrake, SUSE, etc. RPMs are not compatible with each other are because they are compiled with different versions of GCC, glibc, etc. In no way are they on the same level as Microsoft with proprietary Office document formats.
