Linspire is giving away their 5.0.59 version this weekend. A friend asked
me to download the iso and burn it for him. Did that with BitTorrent,
question, how long should I leave torrent going in upload mode? The
freebee ends on the 6th, would it be the right thing to do to leave it
running unitl then?
My usual rule of thumb is to leave it up untill I have uploaded at least
2X what I have downloaded, but longer is nicer - it lets more people
download it faster. As far as the end date of the free offer goes, if
you have regestered for the download, you can still download the ISO
even after the 6th. But if you have not regestered by then, you will
have to pay for it. (The freebee is a cupon that refunds the download
price.)

Thanks Mikkel, in that case I'll just leave it running.
Or you could just leave it running.
