Hello Robert - 

I just kept looking at your last comment and considering the
source. So ... considering the source I'm not going to bother
to reply to anything you've said here because doing _that_
would be morally reprehensible. 

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

CA>> Sure sounds like offering assistance to avoid paying any
CA>> monies to Linspire even though it is one of the ways
CA>> Linspire tries to make a few pesos. If I could find a way
CA>> to stop YOUR paychecks and offer it as 'advice' here on
CA>> FIDO you'd chant a different mantra I suspect? 

RF> Well, first of all, you're neither the official Linspire

RF> I'm quite sure that Linspire is well aware of the business
RF> implications of what it is doing, and feels that its
RF> strategy is prudent. 

RF> Secondly, your analogy is a totally rediculous attempt to
RF> reinforce projecting your own prejudices on others. 

RF> Hey, if you choose to support Open Source, you're to be
RF> commended, but don't suggest those that use perfectly
RF> legitimate avenues to avoid that support are worthy of
RF> castigation. 

RF> That opinion is itself morally reprehensible. 

RF> Regards, 

RF> Robert Fowler
