MandrakeSoft and Pearson Education sent us over a copy of their latest "pro" edition of the popular Linux Mandrake 9.0. We already
wrote a review about Linux Mandrake 9.0, so this is going to be a review of the ProSuite deal specifically and what you get for
$199 USD RPP (easily found for around $175 USD in the market).
Update: Apparently, StarOffice 6.0 is included in its full version with the distribution. Too bad Mandrake does such a poor job and include its RPMs along with some hundreds other
demos in the two Commercial CDs, without saying a word about it (or where to find it) in the "Commercial Software Guide" booklet or another really prominent place.
how come every review turns into a distro-zealot slug fest?
so you like mandrake best, that's cool...big deal...some people like SuSE better...some people like slack, some people like debian...some people (like myself) god forbid...like red hat
it's linux...most of it's the exact same thing just in a different package and some cosmetic differences...and there's room for all of them...if there stops being room for all of them, then the unneaded ones will disappear, simple as that
anyway...enough ranting and raving
