I bet you put it there yourself. He actually distinguishes in the interview between the market segment where people put software on their computers and the segment where they use the software that's just already there. Linspire's market is people who want to pay less for their computers and have them sufficiently capable out of the box. There's an entirely different set of issues there.

Linspire me: Michael Robertson talks to vnunet.com (vnunet) Posted Sep 15, 2004 7:32 UTC (Wed) by hppnq (subscriber, #14462) [Link] I bet you put it there yourself.Well, isn't that just how free software ended up on millions and millions of systems around the world? I wish Linspire all the best, and I understand their economic incentive, but the Open Source myth Michael Robertson is talking about does not exist anywhere except in his business plans. ;-)
