    Installation was a breeze. So far USB2 support is not bad, my USB2 HD is working as it should. Thats all I have to report, but I like this version much better than 9 so far.

    You're talking about the Club. The Community distro release was to allow mass testing of a usually final RC quality build, so that an even better updated one could be released a few months later, aka Offical.

    uhm, are you just stupid or what?

    try mandrake update. its easy. painless. simple. a monkey could do it.

    if yer a little more clueful, try urpmi.

    mandrake has all the package managers that redhat has, and all the package managers that gentoo has, and all the package managers that debian has too.
    and some more.

    get a clue. try it. its easy.

    and to those people who say its not stable, wtf are you smoking? can i get some?

    mandrake 10 "just works"...

    10.0 community does carry apache (apache1 and apache2), hylafax (and drakfax to configure it) and kolab. Also postgres and mysql are around. Maybe not all of them ended up on the iso's (but if so, then it should be on the 4th and 5th cds), and you can always install any mandrake package additionally from the mirrors, once they are functional agin with the new trees.

    I think you are misinformed in some way. What webpage did you read this?

    The official release is actually community with updates, and carries the same. If you have the commercial version (from club, mandrakestore or boxed set) it also includes ati and nvidia drivers, and some other commercial software. So if you are a silver member, you should be able to put your hands on these commercial cd's of the official release.
