RE: Recomendation
Mandrake has never been an issue with people I have spoken with. I do remember a security alert about file system access though. I am not 100% sure - maybe check out their web site.

Re: Recomendation
Well it certainly wasn't a pretty sight for me, at least not in the 8.1 days. It worked for a while, but there were all these quirks. Then again, it could have to do with the fact that RH and MDK cobble the KDE packages together and toss them in the distro On Tue, 5 Aug 2003 20:14:46 -0400 Wil McGilvery [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Mandrake has never been an issue with people I have spoken with.

hi guys, I have a friend who is looking to break the MS circle of death. He's eyeballing Mandrake 9.1 Power Pack edition. He is definitely a *nix newbie so I am curious what is thought of this offering?
