Actually, the OS is being renamed to LinSpire. The Company name is still
Lindows Inc.
in the US. That way they can continue to sell the product around the
World, while still
fighting MS in just the USA. MS has been putting off the trial in the
USA while
proceeding to sue Lindows around the world. So this was their solution.
Should be
interesting to watch.
