Lindows 3.0 will include a year's subscription to the Click 'N' run Warehouse, a digital repository of Linux programs scattered elsewhere across the Internet. While Lindows 2.0 permitted users to download a certain number of programs, the new model will apparently allow users to download as many applications as they want, with no additional licensing restrictions. A related "Click 'N' Run Express" CD promises to install those applications quickly by preloading certain files on popular applications directly from the installation CD-ROM.
