Im not a newbie to computers anymore. I have survived the dark ages of DOS
and all the flavors of Windows. I want to enhance my skills and move on to
the next level. So I decided to learn Linux. Problem is I'm new to Linux and
I don't have any knowledge about UNIX, except that it is also command-line
driven just like DOS. I searched Websites about Linux, and Mandrake has
caught my attention. It's site is very informative and I think this is the
distro that suites my experience level. I hit the shelves at the local
computer store and all they have is Linux-Mandrake 7.1. If I buy the 7.1
version, can I upgrade to 7.2 and future versions without buying again? How?
Thanks in advance guys............
