TA>TW> NOT true at all. There will be a "Readers Digest" version of later
TA>TW> releases avaialble in CD sized ISO's.
TA>TW> The Main Release of Ver 4.x will be on DVD and will have a HUGE
TA>TW> selection of Public Domain Programs to pick from. And as I hear it it
TA>TW> will be a LIVE DVD version.
TA>TW>---

TA>Kinda reminds me of the Linspire linux O/S and the programs that
TA>come with it (to entice one to purchase their CNR service that
TA>has over 2000 software program material they will install on ones
TA>PC. I got a 3 months use included in my purchase from MCI, which
TA>I have a gotta list I am working on 8-).

 Didn 't LINSPIRE at one time give you a Year FREE??
But in a way the next version of Knoppix cound be compaired to Linspire.
Except a ton of programs are going to be Right on the DVD. And then one
has the pick of MOSt major GNU LINUX programs with NO fee involved.
Got a question about linspire thouhg. Withn al lthis about buying the
Right to download are you Limited to ONLY those programs in their
Download Data base? OR are other LINUX programs capable of running under
Linspire?
