I can't see a change. Linspire never valued freedom. As far as I know, 
they always were the prototypical "open-source company" that RMS 
describes in his essays.

Don't forget that they're the company that Eric Raymond chose to put his 
"World Domination" plans into practice 
(http://catb.org/~esr/writings/world-domination/world-domination-201.html)

If the recent deals are causing some doubts -- well, that's just the "D" 
in FUD...
