Actually, I think Silver and higher gives you the PowerPack iso's, but you can 
still download the commercial apps with bronze.  Makes it a little harder to 
install, because you have to configure some of your hardware manually.

Considering that there are two releases a year, and buying a box each time 
will cost about $60, the Silver gives you the best value for the year, IMO, 
and it is better for Mandrake because the profit margin is higher than on a 
box.
