No ISO's available, but if you are over-zealous for Mandrake and you are not a member of Mandrake Club, then here's your chance to first dibs.  You'll have to install via ftp from here, but if you start now, you'll have it by morning!

Not a sneak peak at all, but rather Mandrake 9.2 has been released
as of today (Tuesday).  ISOs are not available, but you can easily
do a net install if you can't wait.  Personally, I don't think
the lack of isos is a big deal given that a) the entire tree *is*
available and b) the isos will be available as soon as they're
available in the mandrake online store.  Mandrake needs to give
it's club members some value added, and while the software the
club puts together goes a long way towards that, having the
isos be club only for the first two weeks give them even more.

BTW, the TriLUG mirror of 9.2 should be up and ready sometime
tomorrow (crosses fingers...). :-)

Cheers,
Tanner (who's Mandrake club membership just expired about 2 weeks
ago... :-(  oh well...)

  This would be a very good time to hang out with the Open Source
  people, before they get formally reclassified as a national security
  threat. -- Bruce Sterling
