  1. Re:Free as in FREEDOM on Dell Releases First Consumer Product with Mandriva · · Score: 1

    Yeah, it's full Mandriva, the difference being 1. Very slightly less up-to-date packages I think, 2. You're not in the Mandriva club (gasp!), 3. You have to install Acrobat and flashplayer and such yourself, which is easy enough.

    But you can get Mandriva free, though. I used it for quite a while and it's still quite good that way. They do have an along-side free distro.

    The GPL is about free of proprietary components, it has nothing to do with cost... why can't you people understand this? You try making money off of software that costs $0 and then tell Red Hat they're evil.

    I wasn't at all aware of WLAN being on the same frequency as microwaves and such. Can you give me more info on that?

    Can you give me more info about that? I use WiFi and had no clue it could be a health risk, though I know of microwaves and cell phones...
