I'm seriously considering staying with 9.1.  The rate of change is too 
fast for me, as I'm spending so much time getting to know each new 
system and configuring it as I want that I can't spend enough time on 
learning bigger issues - security issues, for instance.

I know that I can run higher point versions of a kernel with existing 
mandrake distros, but will 2.6 mean changed libraries, etc., so that 
it won't be compatible?
