All the FTP sites which have the 7.2 ISO are the final ISOs and they do
contain  the final KDE 2.

The box version of 7.2 that Does Not contain the final KDE, which MacMillian
also published, are those which started appearing in Wal Mart and other such
places in Oct.

Below is copied a FAQ from Linux-Mandrake.com
Does Mandrake 7.2 include KDE 2.0 final?

All the Retail Packs include KDE 1.99 which is very close to KDE 2.0. KDE
2.0 Final is available free of charge through MandrakeUpdate. KDE2 Final is
included in the Linux-Mandrake 7.2 Download Edition.
