Not sure if it should go here or in the Unix/Linux forum, but here it is.  Feel free to move it.

I guess mandrake really is out of the dumps.

this is really good news especially since HP went with MDK rather than RH, mabey this whole France/USA
bitterness is dying off.

so IBM has SuSE, HP has Mandrake and Sun has RedHat

how convenient one each.

I wonder how different the price is for picking one up with Linux.  M$'s goal has always been to ensure customers pay for Windows even if its now on the computer they purchase.  Thay have been largely successful at this.
