+Thats may be correct, I dont know I never used the &quot;free&quot; one. The problem
+is that people with light DSL ( like I do ) cant get the &quot;Free&quot; version of
+Mandriva ( Mageia ) and the only option is to DL the One Iso. Thats also
+what I think of. Most people get the One Iso because it is:
+
+1. A smart Iso, fits on a CD.
+2. Has all componens Out of the Box ( driver and stuff like that )
+3. Only ~700MB to download and not 2-3GB ;)
+
+Thus our main &quot;consumer&quot; are going to DL the One iso. So we have to focus on
+that. And when there is a Kernel which is going to slow down my System I am
+not going to use it anymore. I mean what are the main diffrents of them?
+Only a few configs right? Maybe we do it dynamic and he is autodetecting the
+System and config the Kernel that way. Is that possible or is then a new
+building of the Kernel needed? Maybe thats the sulution. I mean where are
+going to discuss here and it would realy be an improvment, when we allow
+People to use a modern and fast kernel and not a kernel which is going to
+slow the system ( well only a bit ) just because there are some people who
+are proud the use a Pentium II CPU just to be cool. You can get a 64-bit CPU
+computer for less then 200&#8364;. Thats not the problem in my eyes.
+Sure it is correct, that they should use 64-Bit Mandriva. But not everyone
+is doing it. We talk about general configurations and not about a short
+group of people. Maybe we should think that way.
+
+I hope you guys understand what I mean ;)
