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.

Listen to Rajan R,
He has written some of the things I have been thinking.
eg. The Mandrake installer asking too many questions.
If Rajan R has a job, too bad Mandrake. But if he doesn't you should give him a job pretty high up, making decisions. Because what he says makes sense.
I installed Mandrake 9.0 from CD's on the cover of a Comp. Magazine. It lasted 1 hour on my system.
They have all this great and available technology, they should ask themselves what should we do with it.
Be the innovator not the replicator.
