Any-hoo I'm attempting to swear off M$ completely, and going to give Red Hat another shot. So far the installer seems buggy, but I'll stick it out. Any other Red Hat users here?


I use RedHat on three systems (was four, had to go evil M$ for a must have application).  I would suggest that you go with RH 10 which is now known as Fedora which is currently with Core 1 release.  Core 2 release is scheduled for Feb 14th.  All in all, you may want to wait till the 14th and download the three CDs.  I suggest you install everything and turn off what you do not need once you are booted up.  Fedora has a nifty daemon called Yum.  Yum will automatically update your system for you or you can do "yum update" as root.  It's free and it's pretty nice.  I will also suggest buying Crossover so you can still get all the nifty web experience you're use to via IE without M$ anchor. ;-)
