>0? If that's the case, how can you distinquish an index to the first item from one that's not found?
Duh. It's picking up the default int. Maybe:
int index = MyList.Where(i => i.Text == e.Text).Select(i => i.Index).DefaultIfEmpty(-999).FirstOrDefault();
but at that point it's not much of an improvement on the original
