So does anybody know how I can configure apt-get in lindows to be able to do away with the whole $4.95 thing!
Presumably it still uses the ol' /etc/apt/sources.list file? If so, edit that by hand and use some other deb resource(s) - Debian/Ubuntu/etc. You may want to "apt-get update" immediately followed by "apt-get upgrade" (or "apt-get dist-upgrade"). I don't know (but I doubt) if Synaptic is already installed, but I can recommend that for subsequent package searching. You should also read very carefully whether you've been tied into a $4.95/month for a minimum of 1 year or not.
