whoo there I seem to disagree with you. I've been runing mandrake for at least a year and I've never had a problem with it.

I would me more than glad to burn you a real copy. ----- Original Message ----- From: Callum Lerwick <lerwick at tcfreenet.org> To: <tclug-list at mn-linux.org> Sent: Sunday, September 17, 2000 8:12 PM Subject: [TCLUG:21372] Mandrake sucks. > Alright, I've been on a quest to run every distribution.
