Hello Tom - 

TW>>> I just asled a simp[le question of were yopu Locked into
TW>>> the Linspire Warehouse for additional software. And I was
TW>>> given an answer. 

Based on a reply I read last night posted to you, it appears
that you _did_ ask that CS email you instructions for modifying
Linspire to use Debian repositories and not Linspire's. 

TW>>> WHICH incidently was Directly out of the Linspire FAQ' 

CA>> This is directly out of the Linspire FAQs as well: 

CA>> WARNING! -- both apt-get and synaptic can break a Linspire
CA>> box since it might overwrite some Linspire specific stuff
CA>> with standard Debians which might break some programs
CA>> (apt-get works but it's not advised to be used by
CA>> Linspire, Inc. staff). 

TW> I fully understand that. So I have had my Question Answered
TW> and I am Happy. 

Yes and you have received the information to reconfigure
Linspire to avoid paying for additional software. You have your
"free lunch" to go with your free Linspire OS.
