If you've heard about Linux and feel like giving it a go or if you want to try Linux but you're too afraid it'll shew up your computer, this article is for you. Read it, feel free to take what you need and ignore the rest. This is not a tutorial, it's a README-FIRST-like article. It should help you to take that first dive.

"The people bashing Linspire are dumb. For some people, it's a very good choice because it tends to work without too much tweaking"
But often linspire doesnt work well, it claims to but doesnt! And the thing is that if it doesnt work well then there is slim to no chance of getting it working properly because they have tweaked and ripped and CNRd it to the point you cant dig under the hood. I think linspire is the perfect choice for the .01 percent of people which it works perfectly for... along with the cost and the fact that if linspire goes under tomm then you have nothing at all to CNR.... So all in all it is a VERY poor choice as far as choice goes....
btw-xandros 'just works' far more often than linspire and you can still dig under the hood (some) if you like...
