They have the PowerPack 6 CD set for $14.95 US. That does _not_ include the
manuals, box or support. In contrast, MandrakeWorks wants $89.90 US and the
MandrakeStore gets 79.90 Euros for the _full_ PowerPack -- manuals, nifty
box, and support -- plus some free time at the MandrakeClub.

FWIW I just got the Powerpack from them, it took about a week for the cd's 
to arrive. This was the first time I have ordered from Linux Central.  Now 
to find the time to do an install.

[newbie] Buying a 10.1 set?

2004-11-26 Thread Peter Davis
I want all the Powerpack CDs, with all the associated software, etc.  
Where can I buy this?  The only place I've seen it is on 
linux-mandrake.com, and the price is only listed in Euros.  Is there 
someplace in the U.S. to get this?

Thanks,
-pd

You can buy it on line and it will convert to dollars, shipping is from a 
distributor in the US I think.   Follow the purchase  dialogue and you will 
see that it comes up with what country you are in and so on. Good luck.

You can change currency to US Dollar in the lower right corner of the 
mandrakestore page.  Also one US distributor is Mandrakeworks.

One way to reduce your cost is to join the Club, and then use the Club 
discount to sign up for the PowerPack subscription deal. Initially you'll 
receive the full PowerPack edition, then you'll get just the CDs for the next 
two Mandrake versions. The manuals don't change very much between versions, 
and you'll have made a decision as to whether the expert support is a good 
deal for you (likewise the Club). Of course, you won't get the nifty box.
