I have read lots of threads about the club memberships etc on this list and find it very understandable that there are some diverse opinions on this. Given that, isn't the best way to support the distro we like to BUY it DIRECT from Mandrake. 8.2 pre-orders are now available. I suggest that if you want to support Mandrake and get CLEAR value for your money, order the 8.2 powerpack or server edition now direct from
http://www.mandrakestore.com If you want to offer even more support, go for one of the subscription offers, which gets you 9.0 and 9.1 when released. USD 84 for the PowerPack including shipping has got to be value for money. You even get manuals! My guess would be that if you buy it from your computer shop, Mandrake may see only a small percentage of this. cheers Brian
