Why did it take Linspire so long to come out with a community project like Freespire?
From the time Linspire was founded, about 5 years ago, they have been very busy laying the groundwork with the OEM and retail channels with their commercial, consumer-focused Linspire product. Linspire wanted to make sure that they had a sound and viable business model before exposing the community to another open source project. About two years ago, Linspire was satisfied with the success of their model, and started work on the Freespire project, feeling comfortable that they will be around for a good long time. Linspire is very excited to see the Freespire project finally being shared with the Linux community.
