ok, have to take more time in making news listings in the futur. :D
- Like: It is there for download if you are a member of Linspire.
- add: I got mine included in price of a harddrive from a Linspire vendor, even gave me the Maxtor I wanted, um, demanded.

I'll be trying it soon on my 2400+ soon, and be able to see any speed differences, as I have the 4.5(my first copy) too.

For those interested, it is based on Debian GNU/Linux.
- and 5.0 has the 2.6 kernel.

I also bought the Virus-safe, which is a one time purchase of @30$cdn.
- free updates to viruses.
--OOps, just read it is 1 year virus updates,
-- just that it doesn't show expiration date at my my.linspire site.

5.0 comes with a firewall.
Only other big items are insider info and a program to keep 'net junk safe from children.
