on.

We installed Freespire 1.0.13
to our hard drive and basically let Freespire manage the partitioning.
 The install went smoothly.  See below our screen shots of the install
process.

The above screenshots show the
whole installation process and really how simple it can be. Â Freespire
installed perfectly onto our system.
The below screenshots are after
our installation process had ended. Â The screenshots are showing the
first boot-up of Freespire 1.0.13.

 Â  Â  Â 
Conclusions
The point of this screenshot
tour is to show really how easy it is to install Freespire 1.0.13 to
your computer. Â We had an available Linux partition so that helped to
speed up the install process. Â In later articles we may discuss the CNR (click and run) process and to find out for ourselves if it really is as easy as Freespire says.
Overall Freespire is well..... Free and thus we like it....
