Linspire "Linspire/Freespire is real Linux, and if you are hoping to convert someone loaning them a Linspire PC might be the way to do it. If you are a regular Linux user, you don't need it, but it makes a great set of training wheels."

Sure it's not perfect, but then everyone's computer crashes sometime just like your car breaks down and the washing machine springs a leak, it's just the way things are.

No that's the way things are in the windows world. I, however, have much higher expectations for my computers. If Linspire/Freespire only intends to maintain a Windows level of usability and reliability, it is most definately not for me, and IMO should not be supported by the Linux community as a whole.
