I have never heard of that before. I only know that Mandrake tried to be the best Linux for normal users. Mandrake started as Red Hat plus KDE. For a time Red Hat didn't include KDE. Mandrake made KDE the default. A short while later Mandrake had a real good installer and a control center. Also a dependency resolver on top of rpm (urpmi) with a graphical package installer (rpmdrake). Then there was really good hardware support with lots of plug and play, all before udev existed.
