before considering buying, especially as my 10.0 is running well.

The short answer is "yes". I installed this, and it seems fine.
Install Smart, then upgrade Smart from Pascal's site, and you will
get full access to all existing packages.

This month's Linux Format (UK) also has 10.1 as the cover DVD, but
I haven't used this one yet so I can't say if there are any
differences.


Thanks for your reply, Kevin.

The information you gave, is just what I was looking for. So, the
Linux Magazine DVD seems to be the final version and not a beta
version. That's good news!

I'll install 10.1 from the cover DVD, install Smart, and look at the
other packages as you suggest.

Cheers

Keith
