The most common question asked is, 'Why are you doing Lindows.com?' The answer is straightforward: the world needs it. What is 'it'? Choice. Putting another choice on the shelf for consumers is the ultimate tonic for high prices, restrictive licenses, and intrusive security measures.
Where there isn't choice, consumers are treated to high prices, poor service, and lack of innovation. New OS pricing structures mean consumers are paying much more while prices for virtually every other piece of PC hardware and software drops.
LindowsOS will have more than 10 million lines of code, but the price should be reasonable when divided over a large number of customers. Our goal: an affordable, easy-to-use, highly compatible operating system. A Windows Compatibility Module means software written for Windows will run on LindowsOS. Setting up a LindowsOS computer takes just a couple of mouse clicks. Adding software takes just a couple of mouse clicks.
