Not only is it free it's also *shock* *horror* LEGAL. An illegal pirate copy of WindowsXP has much more street cred than the goody two shoes linux option. I ordered 6 ubuntu cds to give to people on my course here in Ireland who are attending a hardware maintenance course. Not one of them even put the disc in the machine! Why? Cos it's legal! Therefore I propose two new linux distros based on Linux Mint. 1) Illegal Linux (complete with activation key scribbled on the cd case) 2) Thousand dollar Linux (linux that is sold in the shops for $1,000) This was typed on an ASUS eeepc running Ubuntu 7.10.
