I'vew since looked at their web site and found out:
1. The $100 is a "membership" fee not a license fee.
2. You have to sign an NDA, "just as any Lindows.com employee would".
This rings lots of alarum bells to me.
First, I can't see sending them any money to be an ALPHA tester of their
code.
Second, It's amembership fee because they can't charge a license fee.
Fancy wording to get around something that they can't do because
it is wrong.
Third, I have no desire to establish an employer/employee relationship
with lindows.com.
In plain English, it stinks. :-)
