I liked the system of Walnut, where you could subscribe for several years to
slackware or other CDs.
I think Mandrake should do that online, where you receive automatically the
new version of Mandrake in the post. Nothing Fancy just the CDs in an
envelope. For us couch potatoes or people who don't have a convenient store
nearby, you subscribe online to Mandrake and/or Mandrake cooker for 2 years,
which will give you 2-3 versions of Mandrake.
Cheers.
