Star Linspire and the Insider Program
Linked by Michael Valentine on Mon 4th Apr 2005 11:50 UTC
Linspire I signed up to become a Lindows Insider (now Linspire) back in February 2004, after giving Lindows 4.5 Developer Edition a try and walking away very impressed about how far Lindows had come. I was very hesitant plugging down $99.00 for something you could do free with most other Distros which I thought was beta testing and voicing your opinion, but figured I had nothing to lose since they offered a 100% Money Back Guarantee on the program.

Okay, quick message for Mr. Carmony:

Please tell your employees that I think they've done a good job working on the Linspire OS. I use OSX 10.3.8 and Windows XP almost exclusively now but was once a part-time Lindows user in the past. After seeing so much press about Linspire 5.0 recently, I may need to take a second look.

Another comment,
Whoever is directly responsible (Mr. Carmony or whoever) for making the decision to release the AOL dialer, Nvu, LSongs, Lphoto, etc source code back to the Linux community has my utmost appreciation. I'm glad to see a company respect the GPL by releasing code when it's appropriate and I am more overjoyed when I see a company actually promoting it. Thank you for your contribution.

For the people that have been ranting on this forum, please grow up. Everyone has their preferences for an OS, that's called choice. If you don't like the OS, don't use it.

I use Linux almost exclusively at my job everyday, guess what I do when I get home? I use my Mac... it's called choice. I'm not here to get anybody to use it either... you pick whatever you want.
