It's great - I live in perfect harmony, peace and contentment, and I 
sleep at night.

NOT!   :-)

Seriously, Mandrake is a great Linux distribution if you're new to it 
all. I'm not all that new to it all any more, but I still use Mandrake 
becuase I like getting actual work done without the manual setup and 
fiddling. I only use Windows to play Neverwinter Nights and Diablo II. 
You can even run some of your standard Windows programs in Mandrake 
using wine (and crossed fingers). I run the Trillian chat client, IE6 
(for my rubbish UK bank who don't support other browsers) and Sibelius 
(music notation) in wine.

What's your address (send off-list if you'd rather keep it private), 
I'll send you the discs now.

Cheers,
Jonathan
