does anybody know if buying Mandrake Linux is better than the download?
i have alot of problems with linux on my computer, but i saw in one of those little advertisment things on the Mandrake Linux Installer, that if you BUY mandrake linux, it contains more drivers, so linux will work better, and easier. and i was thinking of getting Mandrake Linux "Discovery" is it any good? |

When you buy it, it comes bundled with some paid software and web support.

well, the reason i'm considering it, is because i always have hardware issues, especially with my graphics card, and in one of the ads they have on the install, it says if you buy it, it has better drivers. and i want to know if thats true
