Not only is it 'unpolished' (good word choice) but you'll want to beat the Mandriva people over the head with their 'club' in fairly short order - you can do very little without paying them for that. I came from Mandrake to SuSE and have consistantly been happy I did so. From what I hear, Mandriva is two steps further down the ladder than Mandrake was.

Ha, ha, ha :-) you should try Linspire then...no, on second thoughts please don't. I'd take Mandriva over Linspire anyday. That is truly one awful Linux distro. I still don't really know who it is aimed at. It's simpler than simple MS Windows is so they can't be looking for converts there. Everything is done with root privileges....why???? I've seen the arguments by the Linspire CEO and I don't buy them. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Xmas may be over but, PLEASE DON'T drink and drive you'll make it to the next one that way.
