Free 4 CD versions

Good morning .
I have questions about mandriva ( the 4 cds version ) Is this version is the same 2007 version ?
Because in this page http://www.mandriva.com/en/download i found that the same link ( Learn more about Mandriva Linux Free ) in " Mandriva Linux Free " and " Mandriva Linux 2007 " is the same .
What is the difference between the free version and the paid version ?

2 - Is it really comes with Cedega included ?

3 - What is the software download manager in this version ?

4 - How to use xgl ?

Regards

Yes, except it has only Free Software... No java, no flash, no Skype, no Opera, no Reaplayer... You can however follow the EasyUrpmi guide, and get all the goodies.

The main difference is that the paid version gives you stuff out of the box, vs the other where you have to configure the repos to get them.
