I'll stand up and second this.  I use it extensively at Just Works.

I have a few that I got for an install fest that never got off the
ground.  I can NOT recommend the Mandriva ONE 2008.1 for the general
public.  It has too many bugs and I have seen a different one crop up on
every system I've installed it on.  Most were minor, but big enough that
a clueless noob will be frustrated and give up.

My recommendation for the Powerpack stands though.  It is amazing,
robust, slick, and has some outstanding hardware compatibilities built
in.  I have licenses for sale for 2008.0 if anyone wants.  Mention
GNHLUG to me (2pm-close) and get a discount.
