Hello Thurston - 

--8<--cut 

TA>>> I look forward to your experiences. 

CA>> Linspire is an attempt to commercialize free software
CA>> (GNU/Linux) why bother with it? 

TA> While I am a registered Democrat, and miss the
TA> opportunities to vote for Norman Thomas again; I am not
TA> adverse to commercial enterprise. I am mindful of the
TA> comsiderable adjunction to the art of computering Bill
TA> Gates made by buying the DOS from the Seattle club and
TA> making it commercially available to many of us. 

TA> In my younger days I enjoyed bothering with PETSCI, CPM,
TA> MS/DOS; but in my later days I more enjoy having my
TA> computers working for me with Windows O/Ss. I gave SuSE 9.0
TA> a try and hoped Novell might make it more enjoyable to use,
TA> but that hasn't materized yet.So maybe Linspere will make
TA> linux computering enjoyable also. 

I see no accurate comparison between Bill Gates and Linspire.
Gates promoted unproven technology while Linspire is an attempt
to profit from established freeware. 

You can get the same thing for free, why pay this charlatan?
