Has anyone DL'ed and installed Lindows operating system yet? I went to www.lindows.com and checked it out but I am not sure if it is all that easy to work with and more importantly, will HL run on it. Will I need to to have differant versions of HL or will the standard HL updates work with it. It seems you can install it and run a dual boot system but I am not sure weather or not Microsoft and Lindows will play nice with each other residing on the same HD. Any thoughts on this?

| I've actually played HL on linux before, using wine (a windows emulator) everything works fine. However, the fps takes a big hit. The one thing I have to say about lindows is... why. And i heard it sucks anyways. Basically regular FREE linux with FREE wine added, and the $99 price added on for profit. |
