Ditto, Albert! As far as user-friendliness, Ubuntu still months away to catch up with Mandriva. I guess when you're millionaire, it's not too hard to create hype :)

I'm very happy with latest Mandriva. I have it running MythTV backend and frontend on workstation and laptop with TV out. Ubuntu's mythtv constanly crahshes on my laptop.

We also successfully rolled out a student lab using our customized distro based on Mandriva and LiveCD project. The server uses Mandriva's terminal-server package (not LTSP) providing connectivity for 5 DevonIT thin-clients and 5 donated monitors. Project cost: $850 :)

urpmi is all I need thanks to plf, main and contrib repos :)
