Red Hat Just a few weeks after the beta release of the next version of their Linux based OS, Red Hat has released 7.3.93 of their software, once again, code-named Limbo. Those of you who read my first Limbo review know that I gave it a favorable review. After downloading and installing the second beta, I had to take a few days before writing this article.

Hey Kermit, this audience is intelligent enough and educated enough to know that APT and RPM are not equivalents except in the fact that they are perceived as "the application installation/mangement tool." In that sense, APT and RPM are the same. When I need to update a program, I can use an APT command or download an rpm and use the RPM command. Not rocket science, but clearly you are too literal to understand my point.

Want your system to appeal to any mass at all? One single failed dependancy and it won't. What would your mother say if she downloaded an .exe file in Windows and it told her that shell32.dll was missing from %systemroot%/system32?
