Hi Anne,

thats where these lists come in so incredibly handy. I know it was my 
salvation when I first started using Mandrake. well, actually I learned 
the true value of the mailing list/news group when I was learning with 
RedHat, but the concept is the same. I truely believe that the Mandrake 
lists are without peer when it comes to support for both the brand new 
user and the advanced alike.
