Lycoris Desktop->Lindows->Linspire.

Yes, we remember.

You could bypass the instalation prompt by setting up the APT repos by hand.

Lycoris didn't become Lindows, those were two separate products from two different companies. Lycoris/Redmond Linux was bought out by Mandrake/Mandriva, Lindows went on to be bought by Ximian. Same end goal though, make a blatant Windows ripoff lol.
Ah, sorry then. I always tought Lycoris became Linspire.
