Mandrake Policy Change Angers Users

Posted by michael on from the seasons-change dept.

phalse phace writes "Yahoo! News is carrying a ZDNet News article which reveals that Mandrake has decided to change its policy regarding its Mandrake Club. Previously, Mandrake stated that all membership levels would enjoy the same benefits. But since Mandrake Linux 8.2 will include StarOffice 6.0 and Sun is charging for it, they decided to only allow the download of SO 6.0 to Silver members and higher."

  1. Why must people always complain by HanzoSan · · Score: 1, Redundant

    First people complain saying Mandrake has no business plan and is begging because they dont offer benifits and make a legit business out of it, now they make the club a legit club and not a donation, and people complain?!

    People need to shut the hell up, Subcribe, or shut up, its that simple.
