I tried installing it on VMWare (before I read this post!) I get to the prompt but can't start X even after installing the vmtools for a linux machine.

I don't like it when it says about 'taking over a hard drive' that is quite worrying!

vandal, you can go to www.lindows.com and buy a copy of lindows cause we don't share copies of it.

actually I got a copy of the iso, however its linux. Linux is free, and why pay for free software?

Especially when lindows is based on debian, a distrobution I have contributed to... doesn't add up.

Besides, I was unable to social engineer a copy from the lindows ceo's secretary, but atleast I tried.

I installed it. It's just Linux. I'm trying to learn Linux and Lindows is sure not the way to go for that. Keep Windows if you wanna run Windows programs.

If you want Linux get RedHat 8.0, Mandrake 9.0 or SuSE 8.0.

You dont actually pay for lindows, you pay for access to the one click install area of lindows
