Re: Lindows for sale on ebay
I don't know... if those letters really come from Lindows, they might be worth a lot to collectors.
However, I doubt they are real.

WIndows lookalike with a Linux core if I'm correct.

What happened...
- MS thought Lindows' name looked too much like theirs
- MS sued
- The thing dragged on for a while
- MS won in some places in Europe I believe
- Lindows changed name to Linspire
- Lindows letters end up on E-bay
- Megla makes a thread about it
The rest is history

Re: Lindows for sale on ebay
Did you look at the site?
They're not mail-letters, they're 1.5ft tall Sign-type letters. That spell "Lindows", with a couple of extra letters and a "." thrown in free.
