With all regards to Anne being technically correct, I agree with Yankl. RC2 means Mandrake thought RC1 was good enough to consider releasing, but put it out for one final bug check. So RC2 is probably very near release, having addressed the last-ditch bugs from RC1. Not release, as Anne points out, but darn close. And in any case, any upgrade that uninstalls or deconfigures your e-mail client -- one of the primary apps on a system -- has a bug, IMNSHO. ^_^ That kind of thing is an attention grabber. Lance
