Subject: Re: Re: Upgrading KDE
I guess I could go back to Mandrake 9.0, but I figured
since United Linux was pretty basic and not so vendor
specific, I'd use that for upgrading and learning the ins
and outs of Linux. I'm still a newbie here and am trying
to learn as much as I can. Would I do better by going
back to Mandrake or something else?
