Hey, us muppets need to stick together! :)

I too have 9.1 on my laptop, and second machine, and it's lovely. 
However, I'm not sure about the minimum requirements or what minimum
install Mandrake 9.1 is capable of, since I have a modern computer
here.  But if it checks out OK on their website then I would say, go for
it muppet! hehe ;)

All the best
