If you re curious, you re in luck an ISO file to create your own CD-ROM ofthe full version of Linspire is included on the DVD-ROM that came with thisbook! (It s in the DVD-ROM s distrosfolder.) In Chapter 12, you can sign upfor your free trial of the Click And Run Warehouse for getting and installingsoftware so that you can decide for yourself whether it s worth paying formembership after that.
