Interview with Adam Williamson, Mandriva Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| The most common misconception about Mandriva is that it's 'not free'.
| This takes several forms - the belief that you have to pay or join the
| Club to get updates, or that the freely available versions of Mandriva
| are crippled demos. In truth, we have one of the longest and best
| records of freedom.

Mandriva Beijing: La Révolution Culturelle? (RC3) mandriva
,----[ Quote ]
| It's a good "final RC", with enough things to ponder over them. And some
| deep thinking will be needed indeed when choosing a distro (I need to
| choose at least one distro for the laptop and one main distro for the
| desktop, both with good Qt3/Qt4/Python development tools), knowing that
| this month is also supposed to bring us:
|
| * openSUSE 10.3 (from the Microsoft alliance)
| * Ubuntu/Kubuntu 7.04
| * Debian Etch (or maybe not)
| * Fedora 7
| * possibly CentOS 5 and Scientific Linux 5.

Mandriva Linux 2007 Spring Released
,----[ Quote ]
| Mandriva Linux 2007 Spring also provides the newest versions of the
| Compiz and Beryl 3D-accelerated desktops.
|
| Together, Metisse, Compiz and Beryl - with the convenient
| Mandriva configuration tool - make Mandriva Linux the most
| up-to-date distribution as far as the graphical environment is
| concerned. Mandriva's integration work renders Metisse available
| for all, for an enhanced user experience. Metisse is not a
| 3D-accelerated desktop but a Human-Computer Interface (HCI)
| technology that revolutionizes the user experience.

| Linux how they can set up a Linux desktop (Mandriva Free 2007
| in this article) that fully replaces their Windows desktop,
| i.e. that has all software that people need to do the things
| they do on their Windows desktops. The advantages are clear:
