Possibly the Best Linux Distro I have seen in awhile
 
To tell the truth Linspire is possibly in my top 5 Linux Distros for many reasons. I like the fact that you can dual boot it with XP. Also, Click N' Run takes out the complication out of installing an OS. I mean come on! 5 measly dollars a month for ease....That isn't bad at all. Also, you can get it for free


Easy Install, Speed, Good Looks (The best looking Linux I have seen), and compatibilaty.

codester - writing in a very small, grey font makes your post almost impossible to read - could you edit it to change the colour and font size please.

On the other hand - welcome to LQ :D

Oh Sorry about that...I didn't relize it was going to be like that....Sorry!....I do prefer to keep it small though...XD

I don't agree with Codester. Lindows is not special because it can dual-boot with XP - most distros can dual-boot with XP using LILO or GRUB, and many have them built into the installation process (SuSE's looks particularly cool)

well...i don't agree either,
that " measly 5 $ a month " is 60$ a year, even where i live, this is not called "measly " .
and all that for programs that are free for anyone, when using another distro.

and the " great looks " .....that's just the KDE-desktop with a " L " where there should be a "K"
in fact my KDE looks far better ( without the green button in every menu )

and what do you mean with " compatability " ? . ( more compatible than other distro's ? or compatible with....? )

it's also in my top 5 distro's, but in i only know 5 :)
( just my opinion )

Even windows 95 can dual boot with XP, every linux distro can, please don't think that's somehow an advantage of linspire.

Codester if you like it then stick with it! Congrats on finding something you like and sharing. IMHO there is no price limit for happiness.
