The problem is that Microsoft are frauds and criminals who are sufficiently wealthy to commit crimes without fear or possibility of prosecution, enabled by the hopelessly broken and corrupt US legal system. Not only did they claim "Lindows" was a confusingly similar trademark to "Microsoft Windows" (their registered trademark), they then also claimed "Lindash" was also confusingly similar to "Microsoft Windows" after Lindows changed their distributions name to Lindash briefly.



The notion that the words "Lindash" and "Microsoft Windows" are so similar as to cause confusion is fiction and pure gibberish. Its as similar to "Microsoft Windows" as "Cisco", "General Motors" and "Blackwater", there is no correlation, relation, or similarity at all. Yet the courts accepted this trash and lies and pretended it had a degree of viability.
