I started with Slackware a long time ago and jumped to Redhat until 6.2 and then to Mandrake v8.X, v9.X, till now. I have been using Linux at home for desktop for more than 5 years. At the start was very difficult because a lot of applications only worked on windows at the time that I decided to jump to Linux. With Mandrake 9 everything changed and going thru all Mandrake 9 releases everything got better and easier, and today with Mandrake 9.2, it's very easy do all my work without felling any need to go back to a Windows or Mac environment. My main desktop has 9.2 and my server also has 9.2. One was migrated from 9.1 and the other was installed from scratch. I'm not a native English speaker so excuse me for my English.
