Hi,
I have used linux since October02 (i.e. I was pretty faithfull to my amiga forsome fourteen years from 88).
Linux Format (remember Amiga Format) has Mandrake 9p1 on June03 mag and I have upgraded this on Mandrake 8p2 (Linux Format May02) and am pretty happy with it. We get a pretty comprehensive development kit from KDE and Qt in C++ which is my area of interest but there is much much more to play with.
Cheers Mike
