Ya' know, that has been something which I have wondered about. While I like what Linspire is trying to do (i.e. produce consumer-priced machines with Linux) I am somewhat fearful of their approach. They could do a lot of damage if they end up pumping a ton of money into advertising only to have a ton of people buy Lindows boxes and end up hating Linux because of it. With stories like this, regarding sound and graphics, I wonder how much success they are going to have. R/S Ryan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
