I too found Mandrake greately improved in look n feel, usability, installation, friendliness and just about everything.
Before when all the major distributions released last year, i would have clearly sai Mandrake is behind SuSE and Redhat, and that it looks absolutly stunning!
Now I find this distribution ahead of Redhat and probably SuSE as well although I have not tried 8.2. This release is an overhaul as large as Redhat did with 8.0, minus the crippled KDE of course. http://mosfet.org/noredhat.html
This does not mean there are no problems, There definetely are, just no huge bugs whicha ffect me anyway. There is still a lot of room for improvement, I really hope teh mandrake team will make as much aof an effort for their next release.
BTW, I run RC3, practically final.
