[newbie] Mandrake PowerPack 9.0 at BestBuy

2002-11-22 Thread James Conner
I was in Best Buy here in Indiana and saw Mandrake PowerPack 9.0(3 copies) on 
the shelf for sale.  It put a smile on my face and made my day.  I just 
thought I'd let people here know that it is beginning to proliferate 
throughout the US.  They also have RH 8.0 and SuSE 8.1 as well as StarOffice 
6.0.

Cool.  Here in Turkey  I've only seen it sold by street vendors amongst 
the pirated Windows software and VCDs. I felt like going up and saying 
Do you realise you're actually selling something legal here?

Actually, Best Buy in Texas has been carrying various RedHat, Mandrake, 
and SuSE versions for at least 3 or 4 years.  I've been here for a 
little over 5 years and it wasn't too long after I moved down here that 
I noticed they were actually carrying Linux!  Most people would think 
Texas is pretty backward compared to Indiana.  ;-)

I am from Texas and actually it is a pretty progressive place in many 
ways.The only Linux you can buy in stores where I live is Red Hat.

I ordered my Mandrake Cds from an online discounter.
