yeah, www.mandrake.com ; sign up on the cooker list and follow developement ;-) <snip> >This all seperate examples from the last time I checked.

Hey, I really don't care what you do! ; I think supporting Mandrake is a great idea! Go reserve your powerpak and help the company along - they desparately need it right now! As far as the tone in that last paragraph of yours though, it reads like a cheap novel! That type of stuff is always going on to one degree or another; talk like that however, makes it sounds like we're all a bunch of nuts! This is the "Expert" list and I would think that most people who are subscribed are already linux users (in which case, my "opinion" wouldn't sway them anyway) or they're just really into getting *a LOT* of extra email everyday?! At any rate, 8.2 does have quite a few bugs and if you don't mind that, or you're not doing anything mission critical, by all means, install it! Patches should be available shortly. (or since you're an expert, you can fix 'em yourself) Have a great day!
