IMHO, either
1)Get Mandrake 9.0 from Cheapbytes, and join the Mandrake Club if you want
to support Mandrakesoft
2)But from Mandrakestore. The issue was only with pre-orders, some of
which got mislaid. I pre-ordered the DVD, and it arrived very soon after
they started shipping. If your thinkpad (I have a 600X) has a DVD, the
Workstation DVD offer isn't bad ...

There are some features in Mandrake 9.0 (such as removeable storage
support) that no other distros have AFAIK (including Mandrake 8.2).
