@256 Remember Lindows? I worked at a computer builder around that time that supplied cheap PCs to QVC, HSN, Fingerhut, Walmart, etc. Leadership was convinced that they'd make a killing on Lindows machines. There was even a test run in Walmarts in some markets.

"Easy to install" is not a description I would have used for Linux in 1999.
