Greg....once installed, the 7.0-2 iso image will also give you a
7.0 (Air) version. Once installed on a computer the 7.0 iso
image and the 7.0-2 iso image are the same. The few bugs fixed
in the 7.0-2 iso image have only to do with the installation
process itself and these bugs are avoidable by downloading a
floppy.img file and booting for the install with it rather than
with the cd containing the 7.0 iso image. All of what I've just
told you is freely available on the Mandrake's web site. You
shouldn't jump to conclusions without doing some research into
the subject.
