Surf on over to Linspire.com then go to "Buy Now" and apply coupon code: LycorisWelcome

You will then get Linspire OS for free! Usually sells for about $50 bucks.

Limitations: The coupon is ONLY valid between 7:30 AM and 1:00 PM. You will also get this error when you enter the coupon if its not during those times smile.gif

GuJuMaN89
cool,

do we also get free software from the clickngo or something like that ?
bosco
No, that's the $89 version of Linspire "Linspire Five-0 CNR Edition".
Flashstar
I tried applying it to the cnr edition and it seemed to work (it said only valide from 7:30 to 1pm.) So will this work tommorow too?
silkster
ohh Dag, Am I too late? I got the same message as Flashstar.
neddamttocs
try the 50$ version as the cnr is 89$
Flashstar
Since LinuxProx posted the message at 6PM I doubt that it ended already. I bet that the offer will continue for a little while.
neddamttocs
just got through it and it works for me

I got it yesterday with no problem.

One thing to note is the timeframe, 7:30 AM and 1:00 PM, is PST. wink.gif
spazmire11
i got it too its just is this cd bootable?
i put it in my virtual machine and it dident boot to anything
cchalogamer
YOu burn the ISO and it's pretty much like a Windows XP CD, only it installs Linspire instead of XP biggrin.gif

Anyway, DLing my copy now biggrin.gif i got 4. something when they changed their name from Lindows laugh.gif

It really is a great OS for the webbrowsing, email checking, office apps user. and has GREAT suport for a Linux distro, it plays windows related file fine, and if not for the fact that it somethime feels slow and sluggish, i would probibly use if for atleast one of my PCs
CNUco2007
awesome it worked. i dont even need it but since its free haha
spazmire11
well i put the iso in my virtual pc program and it just sat there doing nothing
martymcfly
you need to INSTALL it. It is an operating system.
neddamttocs
i have got it installed on my laptop ... dual boot with xp ... it deteced all my hardware right away ... great distro
Mister_Webmaster
I'm plesantly suprised. It appears to still work. I have been wanting to try this out, see how the linux for windows people really is, but I have not wanted to buy it, so now I have a legal copy, and the price was right!

OvKillz
I did this a few months back, the code might still be working
BTW) Its not the CNR edition. You dont get access to the CNR. Its the digital 5-0 download.

1.) Add Linspire to your shopping cart.
2.) On that page, simply click the Apply Coupon button.
3.) When asked, enter the following coupon code: LycorisWelcome
4.) Then click the Update button. This will apply a $49.95 discount.
5.) Then click the Update button.
6.) Next, simply check out!
7.) Once you’ve completed checking out, go here to download the .iso file you’ll need to burn your Linspire installation CDs.

martymcfly
that is what the thread is about!
cchalogamer
yep, we are now within the tiem frame for it to work
OvKillz
ROTF. oops. dang. I done this months back.

You may have lived there, but you are still wrong. It all depends on the timezone. Yes, part of the US may be 5 hours behind the UK, but not all of it, including the part that matters for this deal.

EST is -5 GMT
EDT is -4 GMT
CST is -6 GMT
CDT is -5 GMT
MST is -7 GMT
MDT is -6 GMT
PST is -8 GMT
PDT is -7 GMT
...

Right now, most of the US is in Daylight-Savings Time. The UK happens to be on "Summer Time" which is GMT+1.

That means there is an 8 hour differance between the time in Western US and the UK.

As stated in an earlier post, the code has to be used between 7:30 AM and 1:00 PM Pacific Time.
GuJuMaN89
oh im eastern us, so yea :/
martymcfly
well, what guju means is that from the point of reference of an observer in the UK, the US has one single time zone. However, in the US, we subdivide and multiply the timezones to make four. Nah, he is just wrong.

but 5+3=8
