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.

oh come on!!! You cant piss on linux cause it uses a text based boot process. You rather have just a picture with a little bar that shows "its working", instead of a fully descriptive process that shows you what it found, where there were problems, and best of all, why it WONT boot when it doesnt.
To the guy that didnt like the text based logins, if you REALLY dont want them there, go edit your init scripts (/etc/inittab is where im guessing it is) and take them out, oh, wait is that too hard for you? Stop whinning then. Not _everyone_ loves X, i know people (including myself) that can go weeks without going into X sometimes. X is not Linux, X goes ontop of Linux, when linux boots, X is not available, so i do think you will have to live with those text messages for a while yet.
A lot of the anti-linux-desktop arguments i've seen in these comments were horrid. They arent arguments, they are excuses. If you are a VS.net programmer, im guessing you LIKE Microsoft, so dont switch, fine by me, if you dont like Microsoft, why support their .NET?
Unless you actually bought MS windows (or own it legally) i dont think you should have the right to bash any other operating system because you are a theif.
