First, a little background. I am a Windows user who has been using Windows since 3.1. I am not a programmer or a developer, I am a user. I process photos, use the internet, e-mail, write letters, play the ever important games and even use it to develop my comic strips. I am not computer illiterate and I use my computer with confidence and skill. Now with that said. I hate Windows.

why did you have to mount anything?
i have HAD to mount anything like cd's floppy's or even my windows and backup partitions for a LONG time (using mandrake)
and why did you have to go to the net to try to discover what desktop environment to use before you even log in?
i would never go online for something like this...mostly because its so opinionated (Gnome people will always hype Gnome, KDE people will always hype KDE, Fluxbox...)
the best way to see which to use is to USE BOTH...test them out, try it for a little while, don't rely on other peoples opinions...make YOUR own!
software updates for mandrake are fairly easy...just use there software manager and update from a local mirror...and it will only install updates for packages you already have installed...not so hard
