          I didnt mean that but may slap a copy of 95 on one of them.  The only downside is this is only about windows.

              people have talked about fusing linux and windows for a while now, and I wonder if that's any good? You keep the stability of linux ut you open up the operating system so that all windows software can run on it?

                that would be like a what mac came out to be, after all mac is a unix based operating system at heart.

                  Linux is working on running exe with some thing called wine. Because all we can do is wine intill it starts to really work.

                  I hope thy can but I don't think it is going to happen.

                  linux has a version of win and so does mac, but i tested out wine before and it's had its share of difficulties at times.

                  i think they were to call the operating system lindows or winux or something like that (and I don't mean the lindows version of linux that's now had a name change)
