Is that the Powerpack edition? Or the 1 CD iso edition? I have played 
with 1 CD iso edition of Mandriva x86_64 for a couple of days. But since 
it doesn't have wvdial (I need wvdial for my cellphone based Internet), 
it's useless for me.

One thing I notice is that FC4 uses 32 bit version of OpenOffice.org 2.0 
beta. I thought OO.o 2.0 is supposed to be 64 bit ready?
