I plan to.

I tried Mandrake 7.1 some months back, but discovered that at the time Linux did not like my crappy integrated sound/video card. Buying a new box is out of the question due to terminal penury, but I am saving up for a sound card and video card that will enable me to make the switch within the next few months. Of course, by then, my puir wee AMD k6-2 400 will be even more markedly antediluvian.
