Hello Glenn,

  Don't know about pricing, I haven't really priced or watched them.
  I have installed YellowDog (2.1) on them without a hitch.  Install
  was fairly quick and error free.  Mandrake install was fairly
  straight forward, but the system was problematic afterwards.  YDL
  has proven to be very, very stable for our development needs.

  Supposedly Debian and Gentoo will both work, but I have never tried
  them.
