I've been using Red Hat Linux for more than a year and half as my home system, exclusively. I was using RH 7.0 mostly. I used RH 7.3 for the last 4 months or so.
Yesterday I got a copy of RH 8 and I installed it. About RH 8 ========== * I love the colors and the very smooth fonts. * I use Gnome mostly and I love version 2 (specially the much faster Nautilus). *I use KDE frequently because it has a very good support for Arabic language. * I dig the BlueCurve look, BUT do you have to dilute the look and feel of KDE like that? Red Hat, why not just add BlueCurve as another option instead of assimilating Gnome & KDE like some bad episode from Star Trek the Next Generation! * Definitely need to REconsider the choices in the main menu. What's with the Extras menu and it's many, many submenus!! *This thing of spreading KDE apps along with Gnome apps is really a bad idea! *What happend to rp3 app that was in RH 7.3? I used to put it as an applet in the panel. Now, it's no where to be found! Like hot damn, that was one of my favorite apps. Oh well, I guess I'll have to do some reading and then rebuild a more suitable look for my desktop. Some guy at marketing tells you that you will sell lots of software if you make these crazy changes in order to appeal to some dumb desktop users, and I get screwed at the end?! Red Hat, please do more inovation and less marketing focus group stuff (like that other company in the Northwest). Loner __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
