Hi,
 
I'm totally new to Linux and Mandrake.  I have the 10 Community discs now.  But, I decided to get the boxed official set because I am a newby and the boxed set comes with a manual, and probably fewer bugs to contend with.  I should get the boxed set in a couple weeks.
 
About upgrading vs. clean install.  I will definitely do a clean install.  I know from my experience with my Mac computer that a clean install saved me from all sorts of grief.  The advice on all the Mac lists was to do a clean install because the computer doesn't have to work around or through or in opposition to bits of detritous from previous settings and data.
 
Also, thanks for reminding me about LUG...there are some in my area and I think I will join one.
 
Laura
