Hi,
With LG's problems with CD/DVD(?) and Mandrake I'd
think twice before buying any hardware from them.
You'd think after that mishap they'd scream for Linux
certification of all their hardware, or help in
obtaining it. Consumers do have memories and LG needs
to fix their image fast. Anybody else agree?
Good luck,
Joan
