The reason I originally switched to mandrake was because it worked better than redhat. The niceness of it was just a bonus. I had no problems with 8.0, and a lot with 8.1. 8.2 should be perfect and confirm to the skeptics after 8.1 that mandrake is a quality distro. BTW I run a mandrake virus scanning mailserver based on 8.0 here. Its medium sized, handling approx 15,000 mails per week. It worked the day they plugged it in, and it has been up and not skipped a beat since. The exchange server however has crapped out majorly about 4 times. There are a lot of people who want redhat because its the norm, but they cant justify the swap as long as there hasnt been a single problem with the mandrake box :) I belive quaily is more important ahead of anything else.
