“The idea behind the Xandros Linux distribution was simple–make
the transition between Windows and Linux a whole lot easier.
Designed to be a super-friendly Linux distribution, Xandros

player in fact, that at the time Microsoft actually invested $135
million in an effort to form a strategic alliance with the Linux
