You will find KDE 3.5.7 and the new GNOME 2.20 already integrated, a solid kernel 2.6.22.9 with fair scheduling support, OpenOffice.org 2.2.1, cutting-edge 3D-accelerated desktop courtesy of Compiz Fusion 0.5.2, Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.6, and everything else you’ve come to expect from the latest Mandriva Linux release.

When I wanted to download I got directed to their download page. I have been clicking like mad on the links :-) ....but no download. If I get through , I am looking at 2007..........ahhh, just like in the good old times.

EDIT

I found a link on their forum, and downloaded. As an ex-mandriva user for 3 years ( and still liking it ), I have to say that ( for now ) this one is a flop on my computer ( repeat: "my" computer ) When comfiguring the internet, it just stops..

Will try again man(j)ana
I've had no trouble downloading Mandriva 2008.0, either as a PWP (silver) member from the paid member server or as an ordinary user. I've got it installed on one machine and it's very good.

I downloaded the PowerPack DVD iso and the 3 CD Free set and Mandriva One CD without a hitch.
