I know I've posted this several times before, but I believe it is

If you REALLY want to help Mandrake, you should send a donation:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/donations/
This is the best way to guarantee that ALL your money goes to
Mandrake, not Macmillian or the box-makers. You even get to choose
what project the money should be directed towards -- many of them
non-Mandrake exclusive. Aren't these guys absolute champs?
