You surely received the message from Mandrakesoft announcing the 10.1 version for amd64 will not be available neither for everybody nor for members of MandrakeClub (but only through MandrakeStore). Are you still so enthusiast ?

For now.

Times are rough so it seems. I agree that 10.1 amd64 should be for
download, at least in a stripped down edition. And I also agree that
publishing a boxed only set, without a BETA test period for something
like a 10.1 amd64 Community release is also not a wise decision.
Despite that I ordered this box today, and remember they are not asking
EUR 750,=, a.k.a. RedHat prices, for this, but EUR 119,=. Being a silver
club member gives me 25% off on this.

Recently i installed mandrake 10.1 i586 here on a Compaq Proliant ML370
with SmartArray 5302-128 controller, with a 2.40GHz P4 Xeon
Hyperthreading CPU. Installed and configured the Mandrake apache based
Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.31 (Mandrakelinux/7mdk) DAV/1.0.3
PHP/4.3.8

The machine now runs www.export.nl, a dozen other related websites and
several email services. This thing is rock-solid.

So....
