Mandrake is one of the easiest to use linux distros. Has the best laid out Control center also. I use it and think it and opensuse are best linux distros.
The style, looks, and name, are very unprofessional, looks like it was designed for kids. Too cartoonish and playful looking. Fixing this would improve popularity. Also, a tool like ubuntu and opensuse have for easy install of things like prop codecs, plugins, and other non-free programs. Take the example also of PCLinuxOS in how to make a great mandriva live cd.
