Mandriva Linux 2006 review

Monday 17 July 2006, 6:40 PM

The product is wonderful, the company needs an attitude adjustment.

I will recommend this product to the people that need to learn linux (Gates Slaves) and I then I will tell them before they pay for patches and upgrades from a company that can not stand behind its product to download Susie-Novell or some other Linux that does not try to rape you for the repair patches to thier screw-ups.

Verdict

Mandriva occupies the middle ground between consumer-focused and business-orientated Linux distributions. It's generally well put together, but lacks some details.

Its the applications and device drivers that run on windows that cement its dominance. How many people would fork out hundreds of pounds for Vista if Linux ran all the software and kit they wanted to use.
