I'm for this - put an official address or online secure CC payment form on 
the mandrake page for donations.

Too bad Mandrake doesn't sell stock too ;) I'd be there for ya on that one, I 
have a lot of faith in the potential of this distro, it's by far the easiest 
to install and use, and still the most powerful one for running servers, with 
all the security tools and such.

I've got 9 servers at work running Mandrake, one of them is a 200GB ATA100, 
software raid that was so easy to get going with 7.2. I installed and it 
worked. Although I put reiser on the 200GB raid and it didn't like that at 
all, it was down 3 times in 2 days so I switched to ext2 and it's running 
great now.
