This is not spam. You Have to sign up and request this to get it. If you
do not want it anymore, go to
https://shop.linspire.com/user/mylindows_subscriptions.php and check off
that you do not want it.
You will have to log in as whatever you did originally when you
requested it though.

Actually, both Lphoto and Lsongs are pretty nice. Lmovie does not exist,
although maybe some day, and I had not heard about L-Cal... Lindows has
always pushed Ximian Evolution for scheduling and such.

Yeah, how terrible, someone is drawing attention to Linux.. Has gotten a
lot of people to use it that never looked at it. Managed to make Linux
easy enough a beginner can use it. By all means we should st...??? Wait
a minute, why would you want to stop him from making Linux more popular?
I think Michael Rovertson did a brilliant piece of marketing. Love or
hate Lindows, a LOT more people know about it then most Linux variants,
simply because of all the press he got from the lawsuit. A lawsuit over
a common term, windows.
