I read the review earlier and thought it very good. I just saw this boxed
Mandrake set at Costco for $29.99 Canadian. You can't hardly get an update
OS disk from Microsoft for that kind of money. This should lure a number of
people who have never really heard of Linux to try it out. I am a Newbie but
find Mandrake 6.0 easy to install and I downloaded most of the updates from
mirror sites without any trouble. The three electronic books in the box are
not recent but should have the basic stuff. I think I read the Sam's book
from the local library and thought it was the most helpful one I had come
across as a beginner.
