The click and run warehouse is really good.  Honestly though I think  
the only kind of geek Linspire would appeal to are the types of  
people we would refer to as script kiddies.

I was truly amazed a few years ago when, with the literal one click,  
I had a quick time movie playing through a automatically downloaded,  
installed, configured and started Mplayer.

I had spent months trying to get Mandrake 9.2 and Mozilla configured  
with Mplayer to do  anything.  It had really kicked my arse.

For the same $ you can join the Mandriva club use the excellent 2005  
version and use their exclusive and new (I have not tried it) online  
update service.
