This was an output of a few seconds google search.

Have you ever thought of visiting http://www.google.com :D

i thought of visiting google alot but umm
i wanted to get an accurate reply.

anyway does Mandrake 9.1 uses bash, am i right??

most people just use bash, its the GNU shell and thus the default GNU/Linux shell.

and yes by default Mandrake uses Bash, but you can use other shells instead, they fully support Csh and Ksh I think but hardly anyone uses csh as an interactive shell.

cheers,
