(not really replying to this particular discussion, just this thread in general)  If 
those who
complain about all the stuff RH does, why are you taking the time to tell us about it 
repeatedly?
This list has been the BEST THING ABOUT LINUX to me, a home, casual user.  Sorry but 
I'm not
interested in ipchains and such server things - now that my GNOME desktop works great 
(wordprocessor
-WP8, spreadsheet -gnumeric, HTML editor -Quanta!) I don't have many questions to ask 
the list.
I've noticed that several users tell us about a problem ("RH 6.1 installation needs to 
be fixed";
this thread; "Breaking up MS" which I started.  :-(  ))  C'mon!  Red Hat is a great 
company that
obviously works hard to satisfy as many people as they can.  If they satisfied 
Everyone, they would
have to offer different distributions of Linux within their own product lines! (SERVER 
LINUX,
DESKTOP LINUX, STRIPPED-SERVER LINUX, HIGH-BANDWITH FTP LINUX, etc.)  Lets just give 
it a rest and
let our suggestions for improvement be nicely stated and get on with life.

My thoughts,
Brandon Dorman
