I don't know whats wrong have already downloaded it twice but whenever i try mounting the iso files it reports some sort of an error? Any idea anyone?

 

[kumarmohit]

Corrupted ISO? U hgetting it from torrent or HTTP?

And just thinking why these double standards?

When MS copies some effects and icons from OSX they become chor and devil incarnate and whatever.
When Linux picks up the entire face of Vista, people call it a great job!

The matter is not about copying....its whether you charge money for your software after u copy someone elses software.

Corrupted iso likely but i downloaded it two times already. Was downloading it from the link shown on this thread, the original source. Anybody else who already completed downloading this can u please confirm that its not the source file.

The term "like" is there!! THis linux looks "like" VISTA hence VIXTA! Did MS say that this looks like OSX?
If someone makes a remix of a song, he isn't labelled as "chor" but if bollywood copies the atif aslam song's tunes, then they r labelled as a copy/"chor". Why??

It also gives proper credit to the distro it is based on!! BTW, copying happens everywhere! But I guess its only the fanboys who term it as "chor" n keep on bragging bt it.

but why would any linux user want to use a vista-look-alike ???

many geek users NOT...

But, the beginners to Linux may seem it toooo cool...

So worth to exist !!!

but why would any linux user want to use a vista-look-alike ???

legitimate software, cost, runs even on older hardware and lots more reasons

regarding, copying: its not copying something and charging for it that's bad. what's bad is copying something and not giving credit to the original entity. as far as copying is concerned, its ok wid me as long as its acknowledged and the user is benefited.

Cool. Its good for Vista Maddees. At least Vista ke paagal abhi Vista ke naam par Linux use karengein.

 

[infra_red_dude]

Dunno why, but I haf a feeling that MS is gonna sue this for the name: Vixta.

 

[praka123]

@unknown:that is logical.atleast they can be fooled to make them straight(Linux)

 

[lalam]

Anybody would u clear my doubt?
