Another vote to incorporate non-free as much as possible.  Someone 
coming from Mint/Ubuntu etc. is probably not going to stick w/Mageia if 
the X server fails on first boot or their WiFi requires excessive 
tinkering.  Some students may not have access to wired Ethernet 
connections and depend on WiFi, hence making net-installs for non-free 
drivers a catch 22.
