This has been discussed at great length previously, but I think the point this article is missing is that Mandrake really relies on its users to spread the word on this great distro. Besides, what Mandrake has accomplished without the marketing bucks of Suse/Novell or Red Hat is not to be belittled.
http://tinyurl.com/5lhn2 I disagree, based on what I've seen with a lot of the observations in the article, at least with my limited knowledge, particularly this part: "A further disadvantage, Koetzle adds, is the perception that the company may not be as committed as some of its powerful competitors to providing Linux server products. Mandrakesoft is seen in the marketplace as "always focusing on making a usable desktop Linux, leaving the Linux server world to Red Hat and SuSE.""
