Setting Calibre on my PC

Now that I have figured out how to download .wma to my Fuze, it's time to figure out how to download to my Libre Pro. I've got to wait til Cmas to open it but I figured I can download a couple of books on my SD card so I can start using it after I open it.

I just downloaded Calibre. In the wizard, I am to choose my ereader. I don't see Aluratek but I do see Ectaco. Do I pick Ectaco or do I just stay with Default? (For now I picked Default) If I do have to pick Ectaco, how do I change my settings. I was going to uninstall and reinstall but I figured I'd ask here first.

I did add the 2 free .pub ebooks into Calibre and stopped right there for the night.

Funny story:
I picked 2 free .pub ebooks from Barnes & Nobles. I practically had a fit when I had to enter my credit card when setting up an acount for 2 free ebooks. When I picked "download", 7 books popped up in my B&N library. I started to shout profanity words because I thought I purchased 7 books. Some how I picked up 5 free books and 2 sample books. It looks like they were all free. (It better be free because I was just practicing) I did not want to practice on a Library book because I can only get a max of 4 out. I've already downloaded 2 abooks and received notification of a 3rd ready to download. My digital library shows me that I'm next in line for my 4th abook.

Another question, if its free, is it DRM-free?
