So call off the dogs
Wal-Mart is selling Lindows-based PCs. I guess the anti-trust suit should be over now, as there seems to be viable competition in the PC operaeting systems market.
I wonder how good their customer support is?
For $200 more I can get the same machine from Dell.
I wonder how much Lindows is getting paid per copy?
Interestingly, they feature the system running lots of Microsoft software -- IE, Word, Excel, Outlook....
It seems that to download Lindows, you have to pay $99. You're not actually buying the software -- you're becoming a Lindows.com Insider -- and one of the privledges of that membership is the right to download the software....apparently the GNU provides for charging a fee to assist with the costs of physically transferring the software. God forbid we sully our pure ideology and place a value on the intellectual work of creating software...
I wonder what their R&D budget is
