Hello Thurston - 

--8<--cut 

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

TA> Maybe that is how and why Klaus Knopper managed to get the
TA> Dutch courts to do what Gates couldn't get our USA courts
TA> to do. 

I wasn't paying attention to legal finagling that was going on
for awhile. I was aware of it but that's about all. 

TA> Anyway re printers; I was impressed that Knoppix could find
TA> and drive my Lexmark 73 3 in 1 that I couldn't get my SuSE
TA> 9.0 to do with or with out cups, etc.. 

As I've said, printer manuf created this mess trying to
out-smart their customers and be so very proprietary. 

TA> (Kinda like Krazy Krauts sticking togeather maybe ?-) 

Could be. I'm half German.
