How to Choose a Canine Companion, or Finding the Right Distro
The author of a new book for Linux users explains how and why he chose
to use the Linspire distribution.
by Peter van der Linden
my question is why he pushes Linspire, which costs $50 a year, when it
is based on Debian, which is free. but you CAN buy the 12-14 CDs from
companies, as an example:

Version 3.1r0 "Sarge"
Released June 6, 2005
13 or 14 disks, $29.99
Also available on DVDs.
Version 3.1 (Sarge) offers support for much newer hardware, many new
features, the 2.6 kernel, and many other improvements.
I downloaded all the CD's, but I just finished upgrading to SUSE 10.0,
so I'm not ready for a change right now:)
