LindowsOS Will Bundle AOL Client

ealar dlanvuli writes "BuisnessWeek Online is reporting that AOL/TW and Lindows have decided to work together in bundling a version of Netscape 7 with future Lindows products. One wonders if they should instead be supporting OEone and making it scream."

    Wow, Lindows in bundling Netscape 7. Timothy can you even read? Jesus dude, it says in the TITLE OF THE ARTICLE "Lindows, Netscape team up". Linux finally gets AIM and AOL Mail. Is that what you consider an AOL client? So, GAIM and Opera both able to access such systems are AOL clients? Color me frickin suprised.

    This isn't some genius marketing move that will sway the unwashed masses to Linux either. It is Netscape, not AOL 7.0, AOLites who were born and raised on AOL know AOL for being AOL they care little about some program called Netscape "does that have the internet on it? AOL comes with the internet so I use it". This is news for people who don't read good or at all, not geeks...wait this is slashdot. Nevermind.
