YaST makes the mandrake control center look childish..
But at least Mandrake Control Center is useable by non-gurus.
For example, try changing any boot-related configuration in Yast (like framebuffer resolution). You have to know to use "vga=xxx", and know the vesa mode numbers, whereas drakboot lets you choose the resolution from a drop-down box.
mandrake is too bleeding edge for any real work related use..
You obviously haven't used Mandrake recently, the last one the used bleeding-edge packages was 7.2.
