I don't think there is any possibility of an official Mandrake
"franchise", but nothing stops us from allowing urpmi access.  urpmi
works by default with any Mandrake Linux mirror.

Linux thin-client via VNC for RoadRunner customers is a possibility, but
we would need much beefier hardware for the server and permission from
Oceanic.  This could have interesting educational and research value.

Doug does this sound like a possibility?  VNC is surprisingly low
bandwidth, and it shouldn't matter for RoadRunner people anyway right?
