I have a real problem with this thread. It seems as if, according to some, someone can only be with or against Red Hat. I'm sure Red Hat has made stupid decisions, has adopted buggy software and are responsible for some of the headaches people have had. And I'm sure even Red Hat employees (like with any other distributor) would recognize this. But just pointing things out does not put you on one or the other side, I may hope. I always have a sour taste in my mouth if you have to pick sides, because that kills healthy rationalizing/critizing and often this has a hidden agenda attached to it. -- dag wieers, dag at wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [all I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power]
