With increased demand for OpenMandriva Linux, recently, I have done research work for you so you can make your decision whether or not you will give this distro a chance. I have provided you with a live chat with the president of OpenMandriva Association (you can re-watch the whole live-stream if you join my YouTube channel), and I will do a long-term review for those of you who are not satisfied my work this week.

This review was done on a ThinkPad T580 laptop.
