Sure, just be careful on the examples you choose ...

Since we're mostly talking about useablity here, and since someone brought
up trying to use MCC to change resolution, can I bring up using MCC to
change mousse settings when the mouse isn't working? I know you can use
console mode, but Mandrake really needs to look at these issues which MS
has had solved since Windows95.

(It's probably OT by now, but setting X up to fall back to VESA mode would
help ensure more people had a pleasant experience, but only if the drak
tools are useable in VESA mode ;-)).
