Verry true. I like mandrake alot. I use it for almost everything except my laptop. I like to use the latest stuff on it and not have to worry about when or if a new release is comming out. So for my laptop I use Lunar-Linux. In fact I'm writing this with KMail in KDE3.1.1! Verry nice looking and some nice bug fixes too.
