30 bucks is expensive?? that's their business model and that's totally up to them... why should you want to try that over any of the dozens of totally free distro's?

TurboLinux has been around for a long long time.. granted they are not that popular in the US markets.. but it is my understanding that they are very large in Japan and the like..

They are also the only Linux vendor with an agreement for a commercial DVD player... PowerDVD.
