I might add that I preordered my copy of MDK 9.0 and a discount 8.2PPC from Mandrake via it's web site prior to the European release date. I've still as yet to receive anything from Mandrakesoft, despite a telephone conversation with the French Finance Director and e-mail assurances that my order would be dealt with promptly, and that I would be entitled to 6 months free membership. Needless to say, when I received their e-mail asking for cash to support development or to upgrade my membership status I responded with a not too friendly e-mail. I have always been a fond supporter and buyer of Mandrake products, but I must say that this was the last straw as far as I am concerned. A company that can not keep its promises to paying customers does not deserve my continued custom. It's a shame as I wanted to try out the PPC on my firm's Macs, essentially to effect the transition from MSOffice to OpenOffice.org. Never mind, looks like it's going to be YellowDog or something similar. Alex
