Freespire forces you to create a user account at installation and to run
as a normal user by default. I haven't installed the distro yet, but
that's what their documentation says.
Linspire gives you the option to create a user account during
installation, but it doesn't force you to do so, which is why a lot of
new Linspire users end up running as root. I have Linspire installed on
my son's computer, and he runs as a normal user. Works fine.
