I have 7.3 and was very impressed by it. Is 8.0 much different?
I may have to get that... |

Well for one thing it has the new Bluecurve GUI.
This gives you all the the cool stuff on Gnome AND KDE without switching back and forth. It has a kind of XP look to the desktop. Plus a shitload of other things too numerous to mention. |

What's Bluecurve?
Graffiti, I like Mandrake just fine, but Red Hat just seems to work much better for me. Fewer problems and such.... 1_153_370_371_407, I HAVE that picture and it ROCKS!!!! I work in a primarilly SCO Unix shop and I put that on my background, just to screw with our hardware director, and you should have seen the looks I got! |

Tha caption reads "When you program open-source, you are programming COMMUNISM. A reminder from you friends at Microsoft."
Shows a kid programming on an iMac (yeah, like you're likely to use Linux on an iMac...) with some REALLY evil looking "Mr Communist" guy behind him. Pretty funny.... |

Quoted: Real men use BSD. BSD at home, AIX at work. Though I did install RH 8.0 on a spare box last night. Anybody remember how to get out of X? I tried CTRL-ALT-BKSP, but that didn't work. I stupidly selected the GUI login option, and it goes right to X and a black screen. I need to rerun XFConfig but can't get to a # prompt. [>:/] |

If I'm not mistaken, linux will run on an imac. |

Quoted: My favorite linux is Mandrake. Redhat is Micro$oft of Linux world. ManDrake is RedHat with more spit & polish, a slicker installer interface, and more user friendly - but if you read the man files - there RH. And the install is RPM. ManDrake would not / cannot exist without RH! |

[>:/] try `telinit 3` it changes your runlevel from 4 (X11) to 3 (multi-user console) or, change your config file that starts you in X (probably /etc/inittab) |
