Just follow the instructions there, and you will have access to many thousands of apps, all configured for Mandrake, at the click of a mouse button.

I wouldn't really recommend sites like this (unless you are a pro of course). They can cause problems with dependencies or lead to hosed installations if users inadvertently install rpms that were not meant for their particular distro. Urpmi is the best way to go if using Mandriva.
