Marcel Gagne helps me switch to Mandriva 10.2

Marcel Gagne, Linux Chef, author of Moving to Linux Kiss The Blue Screen of Death Goodbye, Moving to the Linux Business Desktop, and Linux System Administration, and award-winning columnist for Linux Journal, helped me transition from SuSE 9.2 to Mandrake/Mandriva 10.2. I managed to set up most of Mandrake on my own, including getting my Microsoft MN-720 wifi card working, but Marcel provided me with the howto knowledge to get the wifi running on startup /etc/rc.local, how to do updates, and pointed me to NetGo, software that simplifies wifi connections.
