Cool -

What I meant was it would be a bit stink for non-Club members (eg. me) 
to buy their boxed sets through a Club member (eg. you) using their 20% 
discount. Personally I would rather pay the full price for the ProSuite 
and then review whether I would want to join MandrakeClub, or join the 
Club and then think about buying the set at a discount.

Cheers
