if the services like samba and apache werent on by default on mandrake then
linux would be ready for grandma..let me clarify that just a little , in
mandrake 9.0 they are turned on if you want internet/networking
urpmi is extremely easy for updating mandrake
but i prefer to use command line only because if i miss a few updates i can
run into some rpm dependency issues and with commandline i dont seem to.if
linux was preloaded i believe it would be far better received than people
think.make sure to tell them that this might not be suitable for certain
games and that drivers arent available for certain products.with it
preloaded tho you end a lot of issues.
