Take care, Matt Matt, Got you mandrake cd's in today. The first one installed great but the install program would not see and install the second cd. Any ideas. I'm not that worried about it if the cd is bad I think is it small enough that I can download it and burn my on. But if it is operator malfunction, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mogens, don't worry. they're quite stable. I order from them all the time. I do know that as Linux grows more and more popular, especially now with the fallout from the M$ - DOJ trial here in the states, they're getting a lot more business then ever before. hang in there.

I believe they have a schedule of times and how long there at the site, and they advertise 7 business days to the East coast where I'm located.
