Who needs lindows? The answer is: people need lindows. Why? Because they are used to their Microsoft Word-like programs. Lindows is cheaper than windoze and simplier than redhat. There are many people that just don't want to learn using computer back from the beginning. Using Linux is really different from using Windows (and that's why many people switch to linux...). Example: under linux you have to mount a CD whenever you put a new one in you cd drive, under windows - not. People just don't want to waste time for learning how to log as root just to connect to internet using his modem.
Learn about Linux
Download Linux
Get Linux help
