"I think we have improved a lot"

My experiance is VERY different.

Both Mandrake 9.0 and RedHat 8.0 are far superior
to Mandrake 9.1/9.2, RedHat 9 and Fedora Core 1
as Desktop products.

For example, I have a well known and well supported
ISDN card based on "Winbond" chip. Both Mandrake 9.0
and RedHat 8.0 have a perfect graphical tools for
making connection.

Then, suddently, with Mandrake 9.1 and RedHat 9 most
of the tools simply don't work.

With Mandrake 9.2 and Fedora Core 1 things are getting
much whorse. Establishing connection is almost impossible
with graphical tools.

I don't need ANY of mentioned tools to establish a
connection, but what about ordinary user or beginner?

Interesting thing is that both distibutions offer and
recognise only non-egsistent eth insteed of ippp0.

That tell us that both distributions are developing
everything only for corpoprate users (LAN). Home user
is something that belong in the past.
