Drupal is a versatile open source content management system. I'm trying to install it for my own use, but I need to upgrade my PHP version first. My friend suggested that I rebuild the server with an updated Mandrake or SUSE distribution. I'm currently running Mandrake 8.2, and I can't get patches for it anymore.

It just sounds like the task is going to be a major pain. Plus, I don't think I have any way to burn an ISO image from Windows XP. Drat! Maybe I'll have to dual boot to Win2K to use my CD Creator software that no longer works under XP. More work.

A friend of mine is considering replacing his entire small business website with Drupal. I think that's a smart move. Right now his website is still developing (partially under construction) and I think now is a good time to make a move like this. It will support his blog as well as a number of other features. Good stuff. Jeff K., if your out there, I hope you don't mind me referring to your site. As they say, the only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.
