Well, I really don't have much time to test desktop os's. However, I did replace my Lindows with RH8. Now I am really happy.
Same install, was very easy. It's funny... Like I said I own several Linux servers and really love the OS. This "desktop" version of redhat is truley what I needed. I have to power of the command line that I use on my servers and I have that handy clipboard and easy interface that 98SE provided me. I didn't even have to install a single GUI program - They were all there.
It also has the first "add/remove" programs I have ever seen that really works.
I leave this alone and I bet if this hardware keeps working I'll be using this system for sometime to come. I hate upgrading and find very little reasons to ever do so.
