[CS-FSLUG] Mandriva Club

[Nathan T.]

Is anyone here still in the Mandriva Club? My last impression was  
that everyone had moved away from that particular distribution, but  
now that I have a job and a way to pay online I'm considering getting  
a years subscription. Lately I've been looking for a good  
distribution to get my hands on, and Vista (while bearable but  
annoying on my one desktop) absolutely sucks the life out of my  
laptop. It's too bad Microsoft doesn't issue refunds 30 days past  
purchase of the product, I'd like to get a refund on that Vista  
upgrade I tried on my laptop. Mandriva has been better lately, and  
after trying out the 2007.0 version for a few months I'm looking at  
getting 2007 spring.

I was just hoping for some short user-reviews of the Mandriva Club  
service, what perks made it worth the cost to you?
