Download LindowsOS 4.5 for free (AGAIN)


Recommended Posts

It's funny... some people in the other posts have been dashing to get it. Just because something is free doesn't mean it is worth getting. Also, they distribute it for FREE (legimately) on P2P programs as LindowsLive - they do this because they don't have to pay the hosting fees for the file.

Well, I'm downloading it, but I don't have a partition I can install it to. Eventually I'm getting an additional HD, so maybe I'll try it when I get that. This is a cool way to actually OWN the OS for free, and have all of the support, etc. Maybe when my brother gets his own computer I will install it on my Laptop. I've never used Linux before.

Don't get to excited. Its not really linux, just based off it. Mac is more UNIX than this thing :laugh:

No support is included with the free version (I think).

Yeah, that could be... but I didn't get the free version. The POINT of this thread is that these guys have a coupon you use to get the non-free version for free. :whistle:

I did the free download about a month ago.

Lindows is Linux. Someone said it was a dumbed-down Windows, and not Linux. Well, it is Linux, but very simplified. to the point where you don't have to think or learn anything to run it, really...

Not what I would recommend to most Neowinners looking to see what Linux is like. More like something for my mother-in-law....

If you want to see what Lindows is like, go ahead. It really isn't a bad distro for the target market (Windows newbies) that they are after. However, if you want to get your feet wet and learn Linux, I would recommend a distro such as SuSE, Mandy, Fedora or something like that...

[Edit: I have been running Linux (100% single-boot) on my home computer for a bit over a year now. I installed it, found it to be polished, simplified, and not to my personal taste as an experienced computer guy.]

Don't get to excited. Its not really linux, just based off it. Mac is more UNIX than this thing :laugh:

That has got to be the most ignorant statement about Linux and Lindows in this entire thread.

Lindows IS a distro of Linux. Technically, it is a modified version of Debian. How can you say that it isn't Linux?

    • I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....

    • I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...
    • Speak for yourself. I saw it on Feedly, came here to read it, and did read it until the steps to activate. I skipped them to read the last paragraph. I knew it was probably not "the most requested feature", but knowing Neowin, I knew the article was going to talk about a feature nonetheless. I've seen Neowin in its best and worst.
    • See if this article I wrote the other day works for you.
