[PLUG] Walmart Lindows Box - impression
|
my walmart lindows box arived yesterday. i took a look at lindows, for
curiosity. i hope that lindows has a large staff in their customer service
department, because there are very few applications installed. every menu
item has an "add" item, which launches Konq with a link to the lindows
software wharehouse. problem was, they have more menu items than software.
and to get any of the software, you had to pay $99 or something.
as for the OS itself. it's a 2.4.18 kernel. KDE desktop, i didn't think to
check if it was 2 or 3. included software - mail (kmail? i didn't check),
konsole, network config, cd player, video player, browser, file manager, kde
configuration applets, and a very few games. if i was a regular user, i'd
probably be disappointed.
i am no longer using lindows on that box.
