The Mandrake installer has displayed advertising graphics for the last few versions, since 8.2 at least, without impacting the display of information. > I'm also very cautious of big business getting a hold on Linux, this > means it will get ruined and changed by marketing, like most good > things.

Provided it is restricted to the installer and some default home page settings, I don't have a problem with this. If it becomes intrusive, I still won't have a problem with it, but Mandrake will no longer have me as a customer. Cheers Neil -- Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill.
