Lindows keeps Trademark

Lindows has won the latest round in its trademark fight with Microsoft, with a Dutch court ruling that it can keep its name for general corporate purposes in the Netherlands.

The Linux distro had lost an earlier case in the Netherlands over the use of the Lindows name and had to change the name of its operating system and its web site to Linspire. However, it kept Lindows as its official company name.


The company originally changed the name of its software to Lin---s, but Microsoft lawyers claimed this was pronounced "Lindash" and therefore bore an "auditive resemblance to Windows". But when Lindash became Linspire, Microsoft again took the company to court, claiming that the word Lindows was still appearing on its website.
