Hello Tom - 

CA>> Now that KNOPPIX has arrived (and clones of KNOPPIX)
CA>> Linspire is _not_ needed by those who are aware of the
CA>> KNOPPIX alternatives. 

TW> IT stil has it's glitches that will keep it form the Big
TW> Time. 

I know of nothing I would categorize as a 'glitch' in any of
the versions of KNOPPIX - seriously. 

TW> Linspire is pushing PRE installed systems. That is what the
TW> Typical computer buyer is after. 

The typical home computer user is after pirating music and
video and are curious about the stories of all the pr0n that
exists on the internet. If I knew how to satisfy their 'needs'
I wouldn't do it. 

TW> YES Knoppix is an Interesting Look into the LINUX world,
TW> and I have t ies it twice with a Third try pending, but it
TW> is not really a conten er for the long term. ON boot up for
TW> the latest version are you given a Choice of installing on
TW> the Hard Drive plainly in the opening screens? IF not it is
TW> only a amusing toy and not going to get very far. 

I'll go out on a limb here and predict that KNOPPIX and other
'livecd' versions of Linux will kill off Linspire dead dead dead
(and forgotten).
