I was a Mandrake/Mandriva user from the beginning. When I had some
upgrade problems, I switched to Mageia. I have been very happy with it.
If you liked Mandriva then you will like Mageia. I am currently running
the development version, Cauldron. Mageia 3 will be released in a couple
of weeks.

Another distro to check out is the Ubuntu based Bodhi Linux which uses
the Enlightenment v17 desktop. I have it on a secondary machine and
quite like it. It is a distro that starts out with a minimal install and
has a web page for easy install of other important packages like
multimedia or office programs. It is well designed and I quite like it,
though configuring Enlightenment takes some learning.
