I like Fedora but its still not actually released as a final (am i wrong?)
so i second Mandrake. I've had mandrake before Fedora and i liked it better.
(had to change because we used Fedora at work for testing purposes so..)!

IMHO the PC vendor won't bother because it's a waste of resources for him in

I vote for Mandrake.

obvious items (open office, etc...) in the K Menu.
