i sure you all know of all know of wall mart.  who dosen't.  i saw 
something on slash dot  
(http://www.slashdot.org/features/00/11/02/2324224.shtml) that prompted 
meto take a trip to my local wal-mart.  sure enough there was mandrake 
7.2 sitting on the shelf next to winME and MS Plus.  what is going on 
here?  is linux going the same way as windows?  brainless users who just 
know "ok" and "cancel" (keep your snide remarks to yourself about my 
goof up :-))

on the other side of this tho....can we talk to macmillian and maybe get 
the ok to put some sort of propaganda in or on the packages?  so that 
the user (should they buy it) can have some sort of support?

one last thing....i don't mind buying the latest redhack for 99 
bucks......it all goes to redhat.....that mandrake goes for 50...isn't 
linux suppoused to be free or next to nothing?  how much of that 50 goes 
back to mandrake?  i'd beintrested to know.
