Anapnea.net: Free Linux Shell Accounts Knoppix Saves the Day AGAIN
Jan 23

I just read an announcement from Linspire (http://www.linspire.com/lindows_news_pressreleases_archives.php?id=212) stating that they’re opening up Click ‘N Run (CNR) to several popular Linux distributions. My knee-jerk reaction to this is EXCELLENT!

I’ve only heard/read wonderful things about CNR, so I can’t give any details past what’s included in the press release. It should be interesting to follow the reactions of the distros mentioned and see if/how they plan on embracing CNR.

If this is something that the better known distros will latch onto, the argument that software installation on Linux “sucks” could be a thing of the past. If played well, this could do A LOT to push Desktop Linux into the foreground.

This might be a good time to download Freespire and see just how nice CNR is.
