Linspire It seems to me that a lot of attention lately in the commercial Linux development area has concentrated on either large enterprise customers, or wooing the home user who can barely turn a computer on. Even distros claiming to offer the perfect solution for both ends of the spectrum don't quite seem to fit what I am looking for.

I liked the point system

I believe the points were a way to gauge the author's personal frustration/satisfaction with Lindows, instead of a systematic rating system. IMHO, If a feature lives up to your expectations, it should get a +1. If it is a source of frustration, it deserves a -1. An Example: Linux creates less frustration for me than Windows. Windows may very well be a better OS, but I get frustrated whenever I use it, and hence I don't. The same goes for Windows users who have tried and rejected Linux. Linux frustrated them, an hence they don't use it.
