I love how the skyline looks like a couple skylines of that era that don’t look that way now. What city is that?

Thanks!
Purportedly 2024.
@Sinclair-Speccy That’s such a bad Operating System, really bad. Poor features,buggy as hell.
Its gimmick was that it was compatible with Windows apps, and an easy transition for Windows users. It didn’t really live up to that promise. Wine was not nearly as mature then as it is today, and even today it would be pretty bold to present any Linux distro as being Windows-compatible.

Short answer: Enterprise bullshit and Adobe.
On the home computing side, I can’t think of much that has specific OS requirements besides gaming and DRM’d 4K streaming. For better or worse, most desktop apps nowadays are glorified web sites. It’s a different world today than it was 20 years ago.
On the enterprise side, nah. Way too many vendors with either no Linux support or shitty Linux support.
Microsoft is working hard to shove “New Outlook” down everyone’s throats despite still not having feature parity with old Outlook. Nobody in my company will want to use it until it is forced because we need delegated and shared calendars to actually work. And then there’s the “you can take my 80GB .pst files when you pry them from my cold dead hands” crowd. Advanced Excel users are not happy with the web version either, and I don’t blame them.

Sounds like Windows.
Microsoft sued Lindows because it was too similar to Windows (and lost)
I don’t think that. Yes, only one letter is different. Yes, both are operating systems for PC. Yes the UI somewhat looks similar. But I think even the average joe would be baffled by your statement (because they think it is Windows).
Everything runs as root.
Yikes.
The name Lindows sounds like someone made a joke what would happen if Microsoft released a Linux distribution. (just referring to the name)
At one point this is so hyped that makes me want to try it.
Lindows is literally an insult in linux spaces.
I remember their “1 Click Install”
