@mrmasterkeyboard Remember what I said about "#Linux distros need to do something like the #WindowsXPtour"?
- Well #Linspire did that! (video via @TechTangents )…

Sinclair-SpeccySo I thought I was tripping balls when someone pointed this out to me earlier, but for some reason you can still go on Walmart’s website in 2025 and find Lindows 4.0 listed for sale. Like… the old Linux distro from 2003 that got sued by Microsoft for the name.
I didn’t believe it at first, so I looked it up myself and sure enough, there it was: the full suite, add-ons like “SurfSafe” and “VirusSafe” and even the Office pack.
That shouldn’t even be possible though as they should’ve been rebranded because of legal reasons.
It’s surreal seeing something from the dot-com era just chilling alongside modern listings. Makes me wonder if it’s really in stock or just a relic frozen in their system for two decades
RetroComputingMXEl 2 de julio de 2008 Xandros compró Linspire (conocido como Lindows, una distro de Linux con similitudes en GUI y funcionalidad a Microsoft Windows). Posteriormente, ambas empresas, junto con Freespire, fueron adquiridas por PC/OpenSystems LLC en 2018

@ActionRetro I was working as a desktop support technician for a majorish university in the Lindows days and they spent a lot of time trying to create "PantherLinux" as a fork of #Lindows / #Linspire, thinking that Windows XP costs so much that maybe Linspire on 10% of the machines could save a bit of money.
