I want to start off by saying that MandrakeMove is an incredible distribution and I am going to focus on some rather particular points in this review. My hope is to make the community aware of some of the outstanding issues with running MandrakeMove and not to discredit the countless hours Mandrake employees spent on making such a polished product. We all want Linux to succeed and that can only be accomplished by continuing to test, report and ask why or why not? The lifecycle of linux is like an organism, it has to keep breathing to stay alive.

'I sure don't remember ever having Windows XP crash from a USB drive! And wireless on XP is a no-brainer, and it just got even better with XP SP2!'
I'm doing a college course at the moment and just about everyone in my class has a USB drive. I've seen multiple crashes and errors on the college's Windows 2000 systems. I've never seen a USB drive that works perfectly on Windows 2000 and there are still problems with XP.
Quite often my drive will not be recognised when I insert it, and if I remove and reinsert it too quickly Windows restarts. Worst of all, if I leave the USB drive in the machine when it's restarting the data becomes corrupted and it has to be reformatted.
I've gone back to floppies for transporting small files, the USB drive is only used when I'm dealing with files over 1.4Mb.
