I'd
suggest Club (if their interest is more in providing more money to MandrakeSoft rather than the vanity of having a ML box!)
Ok, I'm in a mood today: I'm sorry people, but if I need to worry about such trivialities as this, then I really have to question whether I want to do business
with
a company on such a razors edge.
There is nothing trivial about making the best use of one's money.
I don't know of any other viable business that tries to survive on
such
a business model, as getting "sympathy dollars".
Do you call it sympathy dollars when you ask for payment for your
services? Get real, man.
I'm absolutely willing to pay for services rendered. I have no problem with that. That was not my point.
But it has at this point, become totally useless to persist.
