Mandriva 2009.1 Install
,----[ Quote ]
| The Mandriva install is quick and easy to do. The only real issue is that you
| need to know the terms and settings for networking options that you may be
| using. This example shows wired network with DHCP so that it is picking up
| the IP Address from the router. I was impressed with the speed and it felt
| much faster than Ubuntu 9.04â The Gnome desktop for Mandriva is 2.26.1 and
| worked flawlessly, at least for the time I worked on the desktop. Nice
| graphics, decent speed and a Control Center for administration that is
| excellent. I will put up a report on the Control Center soon. You can
| purchase the CD or DVDs for Mandriva Here.

Mandriva Linux 2009 Spring - First Impressions
,----[ Quote ]
| One of the biggest improvements in my opinion is, I never had to consult the
| Errata. Also, never once was I required to visit the terminal (command line)
| for any accomplishing any task whatsoever. Almost all the things work the way
| they should. The One CD image was only 633 MB for the Africa and Asia
| edition. The available CD space could have been packed with something useful.
| On the whole, Mandriva Spring 2009 is a solid release with a great blend of
| stability and polish.

Mandriva 2009.1 Spring
,----[ Quote ]
| Mandriva Linux 2009.1 Spring is one of the first major distros featuring KDE
| 4.2 as the default desktop environment. The whole distro is built around the
| current stable KDE release and there wasnât as much as a blip, even while we
| were running around the desktop pushing all the buttons for this review
| (thereâs also Gnome 2.26, Xfce 4.6 and LXDE for netbooks and older machines).

Mandriva 2009.1 âSpringâ is Stunning
,----[ Quote ]
| So there you have it, Mandriva 2009.1 is an amazing release. It has
| everything that Kubuntu lacks in a KDE distro. Kubuntu has always been my
| favorite distribution, yet a release as good as this one may convince me to
| make the switch. To put it more simply, Mandriva 2009.1 is probably the best
| KDE-based distribution I have seen so far this year, and itâs everything that
| Kubuntu should have been. I definitely recommend anyone reading this to give
| Mandriva a shot. Hopefully youâll find it as wonderful as I do.

Mandriva Linux: What Windows should be.
,----[ Quote ]
| For the last 15 or more years I have been waiting for Linux to be as user
| friendly as Windows. As more and more impressive software came out for
| windows, this grew stronger and stronger. Now, I am finally satisfied. I
| installed and instantly saw that my life was about to get easier. I spend
| about 16 hours a day coding and Googling. So, my operating system must be top
| notch. I also do not like to sit and type commands all day either. But with
| Mandriva 2009, I do not have to!
|
| It happens everytime my girlfriend goes to MySpace. She gets infected with
| malware, despite running Spybot SD and AVG. Great job, now I am going to have
| to clean her PC out again right? Wrong, I formatted the drive and installed
| Mandriva. She is now browsing safely and is having no problem using Linux. It
| is as easy as Windows now, but without the bullshit. Now, I do not complain
| that she is going to MySpace!
