    You got that backwards, if they DO run on a distro out of the box, its not worth your time.

    The first rule of Mandrake club is that you DO NOT TALK about Mandrake club.

    I didn't know they were being held hostage.
    I blame Microsoft.

    The premium customers get to test it out and find the bugs. The regular customers get it after the bugs are fixes. Sounds good to me ;)

    I'm more thinking of the LG CD-RW drive bug with 10.0 Community. There was a command in Mandrake's kernel that wiped out the firmware in some of LG's CD-RW drives. The people trying Community found the bug, had to go through some long process to get their CD-RW drives working again and then when 10.0 Official came out, those who downloaded it for free have no more bugs! So we can pay to test Mandrake!
