Mandriva Linux 2007 ONE for home users Intro & table of contents

Article introduction

This article is a follow up on my earlier article on Mandriva Linux 2006 for home users. Basically it contains the same information but updated to Mandriva Linux 2007 ONE. It contains as well some polishment to my english writing thanks to John Barron (http://www.europa.demon.co.uk/). John gave me input on my English writing on the earlier article, which I did not have the time to include but which I included in this version.

The information in this article reflects my own experience, or even just my personal opinion, and your mileage may vary. During the writing I have tried to verify as much as possible the correctness of my statements, but as anyone I am prone to error, so if you should encounter mistakes, please let me know via my website: coulier.org.

John Barron was so kind to do a big effort to create a print ready form of this article. He made it available via lulu.com in a colour as well as a black and white version. The PDF version can be downloaded for free from lulu.com, and the paperback comes at  €10.23 for colour and €4.60 for B&W version (excl. shipping costs). Maybe an idea as a present for someone you know?
