Another review of the Linux-Mandrake 7.2, coming at the same
time Mandrakesoft released Linux-Mandrake 8.0. Here, Steve Coe
discusses how he replaced Red Hat Linux with Linux-Mandrake:

“As installs go, Mandrake was painless, and the graphical
install, which other distributions seem to have trouble with,
worked flawlessly. Not once was I left wondering if the system had
hung. It’s cleanly laid out and enjoyable to use, and most of all
reliable. I would rank the Mandrake install next to Stormix for
ease of use and simplicity. The install was enjoyable, or at least
as enjoyable as these things can be.”
