[NTLUG:Discuss] First stable of Mageia is out!

[Gilbert Morrow]

Have always liked Mandriva (Mandrake) , never used it for my main distro ,
used PCLinuxOS (Mandriva spin off) until a little girl on their site told me
that it was her "house" , funny I had been using the OS for years before she
showed up , so I no longer use or try to speak of that OS . Mandriva is a
good base OS and I believe another called Unity uses it as well. Good luck
to them , like to see new OSs .
