[ILUG] Anybody using Lindows?

My brother got it, just for the giggle . . .

He reckons it's quite good actually : most apps from MS seem to work well on
it. Also it has the curious effect of preventing Office 2000 from asking for
a serial number during install, the box comes up but it's all greyed out and
install continues normally. I believe windows games have quite  abit of
trouble with it though (to the extent of a 0% success rate). Not much more
you can say - it's just like Windows . . . but it's Linux (dangerously close
to wandering OT there).

I don't much see the point myself.
