Perhaps there could be a repository for press releases showing how useful Mandrake can be for some application. For example, suppose there were several releases showing how school X, Y & Z saved a lot of money by using Mandrake instead of another OS. Although local users would have to do some legwork, it might be necessary for Mandrake to supply some contact support to be credible with the publisher. Schools might be good leverage for widening the Mandrake base. Many schools are trying to get semi-new computers because the older ones can't run the newer versions of Windoze. A few releases showing how Mandrake can be used instead might be of great interest to many cash -strapped schools. On the ads in MD, I would find a REALLY useful or interesting ad to be worthwhile. I might even choose to install it if it was good enough, and the ads were optional. Trouble is, it is often quite expensive to produce something quite good. Are there any things that might be useful that could be converted into 'ads' good enough to choose? -- rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
