Freespire 0.0.76 (681.07MB) [source: digg.com] is a community-driven, Linux-based operating system that combines the best that free, open source software has to offer (community driven, freely distributed, open source code, etc.), but also provides users the choice of including proprietary codecs, drivers and applications as they see fit. With Freespire, the choice is yours as to what software is installed on your computer, with no limitations or restrictions placed on that choice. How you choose to maximize the performance of your computer is entirely up to you.
This is the main installation CD for our community-driven, Debian-based Linux distribution which legally supports (or has one-click access to support): MP3, DVD, Windows Media, QuickTime, Java, Flash, Real, ATI drivers, nVidia drivers, Adobe Acrobat Reader, proprietary WiFi drivers, fonts, and so on. Provides free access to the entire Freespire open source application pool using apt-get. [Freespire]
Want to try a different flavor of Linux? Freespire seems to be one of the newest, and aims to be the most flexible. Beta 1 is just around the corner, so if you'd rather have a public beta release, hold of those downloads. Also, options to purchase physical disks (North America, Europe, Australia/Asia) are promised to be available soon, so you may opt for that instead of downloading.
