It is legit, tho slightly expensive. This person is doin nothin different (or illegal) than the many websites like cheapbytes do. The software is still free. The packaging and S&H is what's being charged for. http://www.opensoars.com/?page=shop/flypage&product_id=73 is sellin Mdk 9.0, 3 CD sets for $2.99 .... plus they make a (very) small cash contribution back to Mandrake and other OSS projects. For those that really want to support MandrakeSoft, buying cheap CD's like this, _and then_ joining the Club, goes a lot further, does much more good, than buying boxed sets. -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas
