I like it, but with one caveat: I feel like the progress bar has become part of the logo. It feels too cramped, tucked in as it is below "Mandrake" and to the left of "Linux". I much prefer the bar below (such as in "silent splash 2"), but with the graphic treatment of "silent splash" (the one mentioned above). That is, a narrower bar (with the "gel" look). But align its width to the left and right limitations of the word "Mandrake" and separate it from the text a bit more than even in "silent splash 2". Overall, very cool stuff. - John
