Lindows Changes Name to 'Linspire'

Robert Nicholson writes "As previously covered, Lindows has decided to change its name thanks to Microsoft legal threats. Well it has just announced the new name - Linspire - clever, huh? There's a site at Linspire.com. The full story and the history behind it all are covered on Techworld."

This whole story reminded me of an angry child, lashing out at a parent who'd caught him with his hand in the cookie jar. Microsoft rightly (IMHO) went after them when they were called "Lindows" (deliberately deceptive), and all Lindows could respond with was a childish runaround that only succeeded in wasting the courts' time.

Oh, and how does one pronounce "Lin---s" anyway? The first thing Linspire should do to improve their chances is sack their brat of a CEO.
