Mandrake to Mandriva to OpenMandriva KDE Plasma

Both diect and linuxtraker downloads are in snail pace.

I am going to erase Neptune 9.1 since its GRUB Frozen configuration file won't let me install GNOME.

I am going to. Blacklist all KDE desktop distributions that stall Debian GNOME.

OpenMandeiva KDE did not mount even on live mode. GNOME version mounted but ruined my GRUB.
Please do not try this distribution which does not understand the User Needs.


Well, I am going to settle down with Russian ALT Linux which has the fastest download speed. Besides, it has a Isos for Enlightenment and IceWM. But no application. One has to use the Sysiphus to install software.
All at 2GB size.
Russian ALT Developers have come to town and I recommend their ISO Images.
Yes, I started with Mandrake KDE desktop.
It came from France.
A lunatic Mandrake Magician sued for the name but MandrakeSoft continued untl it went in to bankruptcy.
The project Globe Trotter, was well advanced for its time, never so the sunlight.
Then the Developers many Engineers who lost their jobs made a consortium to develop a images for every conceivable firmeware for hardware available.
Isos were not released on time and I moved to PCLinuxOS until Texstar Bill Reynolds quit with the entry of 64 bit computers.
By this time, I had discovered Debian Gnome and with 6 to 7 CDs, I compiled a GNOME Desktop. 
That was my beginning untli March,  2010 when I decided to compile a review of 100 Linux distribution which ended up past 200. I beat Sachin Thandurkar who was trying for his 200th ODI century.
Then I moved to soccer star Argentinian Dieogo Maradona but lost interest when the soccer tournament was held in Middle East where females and expact workerd were inhumanely treated.

Soccer is all money now.
Even fourth place France gets 27 millions.
Roughly 3 million for each Team.
They use this money to buy players of outstanding performance record.
USA 15 mullions 
Australia 12 millions but I love Australian Rugby Football which is fast and entertaining.
