    Setup tools are a universal problem, and Mandrake has been doing a good job, the setup tool has been improving. SuSE has been polishing Yast and its now opensource. Both console and GUI versions are very easy to use. I'd like to see Yast used on Mandrake, since its opensource, and IMHO easier to get things setup.

    What I'd like to see with mandrake, is the update process a little smoother, still a little kludgy when updating on basic or paid updates. I bought and paid for redhat update services, now I pay for Mandrake. I switched when redhat dumped all the desktop applications and went strictly for server roles. (But now there is Fedora, ya I know...)
