I second this.  I've had much good use of Mandrake (downloaded isos only) over
the past year and would love to give something back.  Unfortunately it's been
ages since I've programmed, and time is really scarse.  But I do have some
money.

I've considered buying a boxed set, but I won't use any commercial apps and
don't need/want printed docs.  I'm certain that the margin on a $50 donation
is much larger than the margin on a boxed version, anyway.  :)
