i heard of another Linux based OS, but i forgot the name

Hi, this was an interesting distro for me because it was supposed to run just like windows, and i'm not talking about just the looks of it. i mean the programs and all that jazz too. it was supposed to be very similar to windows. the only thing that i remember about the name of it was all one word with an "OS" at the end e.g. LinuxOS not Linux OS.

Thanks for all of your assistance!

You probably mean PcLinuxOS (www.pclinuxos.com). :p

ReactOS

And it's not Linux-based. It's just open source.

Sorry Nakkis, But aysiu hit the nail on the head! Thanks so much. I know this is going to sound stupid, but i knew that it wasn't linux based, but i had no other way to describe it. if it runs just like windows, i'd be a clown to think it was Linux based.

However, PCLinuxOS, what is that like? that may be a solution to my windows like needs :)

It's a desktop distro much like Ubuntu, but it focuses on KDE.
