I agree, and I do the switch also. Personally I think it's a marketing thing. Only problem is, in the free software world, items live or die by their own merits, and not by virtue of wether the developers put a garrot around your neck or not. Users get hip to that immediately. The thing that made Mandrake an item was it's freedom and initial success of it's installation routines. MDK management seems to have lost sight of that. This has happened one too many times.
