Comon guys, are you all just jumping on the lets bash MS bandwagon. Im not saying its not fun but i think MS have a case here. As far as i can tell, and im not up on all the legal mumbo jumbo, not even in my own country, but dont these type of disputs happen when theirs a confusing name or soemthing like that being used that resembles another trade mark?
Do you honestly think people arnt going to be confused between lindows and windows? If i told my mum to go buy windows and all she could find was lindows, she'd buy it
Infact, im not sure with way to go here, i like the lindows name and i want them to keep it, but even the lindows management knew they were going to be in some hot water with this one, but they took the chance anyway. Think about it. They are delibratly trying to take something good away from MS's trade mark for themselfs, when this is something that belongs to MS and they've earnt. For example, when you hear Lindows you automaticly think Windows. Thats what they wanted. But is it moral? If Windows started calling their Operating system Winux, would you feel differently about the situation and you would think MS should not be able to use that name?
Seriously, i think MS have a case. Unfortunate for lindows, but they knew they where going to get this crap from MS but they took the chance.
