Good info... thanks Rolf. So far from what I've seen I like 9.2. As a 
workstation its quite well behaved and apart from the slight diffuculties 
I had trying to install with graphical mode, ( used to text install - 
worked flawlessly ). I'm getting real curious to know how it behaves when 
installed as a server. My gateway/firewall server is running Mdk 8.2 and 
I'd like to upgrade it to take advantage of some of the firewall tools 
that exist in the 9.x versions of Mandrake. ( would like to do some port 
forwarding - just been to lazy to learn how to do it using Bastille and 
writing the rules for it and doing the setup for it by hand. Prolly should 
cause I need to know "how" it works rather then letting a program do it 
for me.
