I never thought their "club" business model was a smart thing to do. At
least that's the Mandrake,  then Mandriva I remember.

I never took the time to try them again.

BTW, I did join early on
I think it was $20 to become a member and get faster access to their
servers.

Then along came Ubuntu ...

"  This doesn't have to be a bad thing, the Mandriva community points out.
  "Folks, just because they're looking to sell doesn't mean it's
  necessarily bad," writes ruel24, "Honestly, Mandriva has never had a
  business sense about them. They make a great distro, and always have.
  What they lack is capital and direction, and hopefully someone will
  provide both."
