This alpha introduces several significant changes, most obviously the inclusion of KDE 4 - 4.1 beta 2, specifically - as the default version of KDE, and the latest development version of GNOME, 2.23.4.

I have been testing out the Alpha 2 in Virtual Box, and it is very impressive. Planning on replacing my Ubuntu 8.04 installation on my laptop since Kubuntu Remix 8.04 is very buggy (could change with 8.10 release). But I really like Mandriva and the direction they have taken with KDE 4.
