Gentoo, Lindows and Lycoris arguably were the big surprises of the year in the Linux land, but everyone is waiting the release of Red Hat 8.0 with, possibly, the biggest anticipation ever for a Linux distribution. Since Red Hat posted the Limbo and Null betas, fans of the most popular distribution on earth were making waves and even called this new version a Windows killer. Does this really hold up though? Will Red Hat be successful on their quest to infiltrate the business workstation/destkop market? Read more to find out and view some of the high resolution screenshots we have for you! UPDATE: Red Hat 8 is out! ZDNews has an article about the new release of Red Hat 8.0.

I completely agree with the comments about XFree86 and the rough edges one gets as a business desktop. Red Hat has a lot of work to do making the UI more friendly. I've made comments in their mailing lists and posted bugs on the relevant parts of the OS that need to become more friendly. The 7.9 overall rating seems fair.
