Use of "Lindows" name blocked in SwedenUse of "Lindows" name blocked in SwedenPosted Dec 11, 2003 17:51 UTC (Thu) by clugstj (subscriber, #4020)Parent article: Use of "Lindows" name blocked in Sweden For english speakers, Lindows and Windows are quite different. Non-english speakers could have a much harder time distinguishing the two. So, I can see how a case could be made that the two could be confused. This "press release", however, is exaggerating it quite a bit.

Use of "Lindows" name blocked in Sweden Posted Dec 11, 2003 19:28 UTC (Thu) by johnny (subscriber, #10110) [Link] It would surprise me if this was the reason why the name was blocked. I'ma Swede and I'm pretty sure most, if not all, Swedes can tell "Lindows" from "Windows". We watch insane amounts of non-dubbed American television in .se. Even the... less gifted learn a lot of English from Oprah or Ricky Lake. ;)
