Apparently it's just online.

Well when you need the right tool for the job, go to Home Depot

That's surprising. Looks like it's about the same price as Koobox, which looks like another decent Linspire shop.

Man, that IS a Koobox case, at least.

Look at the Multimedia pic down there, exact same box.

Hey, that is great. My only issue, though, is when I clicked on further details and read the review, the review sounded too good to be true. Almost like a marketing shill Linspire wrote it. It seems too good and too "constructed" to be true.

Yeah, I think that's what marketing types do. But honestly, does anyone ever believe anything they read from some marketing flyer or publication? I always figure you turn down the Hype Dial from "11" to about "2" and find that gives me something close to reality.

[EDIT]
Whoops, I see what you mean, it's a "Review" though obviously not from some customer. Yeah, at least Amazon separates reviews from consumers from reviews by others or something written by marketing people.
