XperienceI agree W2K is the best windblows distro, my friends who have XP rate it poorly,

XP is a piece of crap, ME is a piece of crap, W95 and W98 were pieces of
crap, but W2K is not a piece of crap. When they did W2K they did something right,
and even some of my hardest-core Solaris/BSD droogies admit grudgingly that W2K was a break from the mold.
Re: Mandrake: I fervently hope it lives forever because I happen to really like it and of all the distros I've installed, I think it's the friendliest.
I know that doesn't carry much weight in this community and I don't mean it in the sense of "just click" and " you don't have to read any books" or even
"watch the pretty lights, kid"; I mean Mandrake makes me want to get more involved, while others like Debian seem to have a deliberately high barrier to entry for the newbie.
but W98 2nd ed. is not so bad really. Mostly let down by it's file system.
I hope Mandrake can servive it is badly needed.
