LINSPIRE CEO: LET LINUX COMPETE TO KEEP MARKET FAIR

Don't be fooled by a sweetheart deal, said Linspire CEO Michael
Robertson. Companies -- and government organizations -- deliberating
whether to buy Windows or Linux may find themselves tempted by a
sweet price cut from Microsoft. But, Robertson cautioned, this may be
the proverbial free first hit -- after which the customer becomes
hooked, and the price, in one form or another, soars higher and
higher.

"As Internet technology itself vaults into new areas, so too does the
Microsoft monopoly and its tried-and-true bag of tricks."
-US Senator Orrin Hatch, (R) Utah
