I bet this year Mandrake won't win any awards due to their poor timing
release in the US. When you know that the American press is the one deciding
on hot products, I think RedHat will send some flowers to Mandrake.

Yes. You will be able to download KDE2 and some other packages via
MandrakeUpdate very soon. This will put your purchased Mandrake to
the same level as the Download Edition.
