Linspire.com makes it very clear that upgrades or 3rd-party installations
are not exclusive to C&R. C&R is an optional convenience.

 CA> Hello Charles -

 >> After playing with Linspire 5.059 for a bit, I must say I'm
 >> impressed with the amount of care put into it. Certainly
 >> has a pretty face and very easy to setup for a Linux distro.

 >> However, there are several things about it I find not to my
 >> liking:

 >> 1. The only file system it will use is ReiserFS. (It can
 >> read\write to other Linux file systems and FAT 12, 16, 32)

 >> 2. Obtaining and installing software.

 >> If anyone is interested, I can show them how to legally
 >> overcome 2 above without using the pay service. Either send
 >> me email or post a question to me in the Linux echo.

 CA> because there is no justice in the man.
