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.]

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 tried to get the latest secureboot certificate for my old Dell 7010 Optiplex machine.   I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake.  Now when secure boot is on. The machine doesn't boot and complains about no booting devises.  The computer's secure boot can't find where to boot and the information apparently has to be entered manually.  Secureboot's settings are now years old and it can't find a new configuration.  What could be done here? There are plenty of files to choose from in the secureboot menu, but I don't know what to put there for each of the four Windows 11 upgraded from 10..... originally who knows what (used machine)

    • They need to follow the standard for AAA game but they will go at lowest level for triple a game because will sell more, earn kudos and the milk it for years anyway. look how much they milked gta 5 and how they milked the original 3 - San Andreas and vice city. it is probably going to be a fun game but then they allowed someone to remake classics that somehow were more broken and worse then original i hope they don’t ###### up this one!!!
    • In addition to the "sidebar app list" and "Collections" features, Microsoft will also deprecate the "Drop" feature. Before you publish this news and credit another site, here is the original source: https://x.com/i/status/2067838711870439583 .
