A lady friend just bought a computer from our local "fry's" with lindows
installed. I notice that it is "VERY" loosely based on debian..
So far it has found all of the hardware, and hopefully will find a "new"

That is exactly how I started! Knoppix--installation was painless and

Ok to answer my own query, I have managed to find some good reviews on
the Lindows Mobile PC and in a place I probably should have thought
about earlier. After giving up on google, I had a closer look at the
Lindows.com site and found that they have some pretty vigorous forums
there, and they can

I have just started looking for a new laptop courtesy of the logic board on my ibook

Hi,
I had a look at lindows.com after some discussion on slashdot, and the
package names in their click-n-run warehouse are very debianish. They
even have the 'application' libdbd-sybase-perl for download :-)
Is lindows based on debian?
