    Question Lindows

    I have recently read that Lindows (now Linspire, thank you Microsoft) had a distro called Lindows 4.5.

    This was a distro that allowed for Audio and Video production. This is a perfect OS for me, but I cannot find where to get it.

    Can someone tell me where I can get it, or where I can get a distro of similar qualities.

    Thnaks

    I'm not certain, but I'm thinking you won't find it since they were sued by Microsoft for using the Lindows name. I'm thinking they probably pulled all Lindows releases off the internet.

    Maybe someone else knows for sure.
