Neologism; the article says it's a term used to describe a minimal version of Microsoft Windows, but most references I can find to it seem to be misspellings of Windows, an intentional turning-upside-down of the W to make an M, or a portmanteaus coined by individuals (a Mac with Windows, e.g.).

• Delete - unless Mindows has been the subject of multiple articles in reliable sources. CyberAnth 08:10, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment the term is used on a forums (being hosted on the Microsoft site doesn't make it "special") and is used by a person with 2 posts. I don't think that qualifies as an "endorsement" of the term by Microsoft. mikm_t 06:05, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
