Windows I've been using Windows as a network administrator for just over 6 years now. I've used NT4 servers, 2000 servers, and Windows 2003, and there has been a tremendous improvement with each version. There are still some things that drive me nuts in my job, though, and this is a chronicle of the top five.

If you install RHEL/SuSE/Mandrake/Debian, you get GNOME/KDE.

Uhm. No. Read what Rayiner said.

If you install Debian, you can chose for X / KDE / GNOME but by default its off. That counts for: hamm, slink, potato, woody, sarge (beta). I'm very sure of that because i've installed all these versions and i installed them several times.

The same is true for Gentoo as well. Its been a while since i installed Mandrake/SUSE/RedHat though. In the past it was true for at least RedHat 5.0 - 6.2. I think its still true, but feel free to proof otherwise preferably credible sources.

Ofcourse, its pure logic a 'desktop' version of an OS installs a GUI. Doh! So don't bother to start about e.g. Fedora. Thank you.
