Red Hat 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.

Menus

I've been using Null for awhile now and I have been waiting for the full version, since I installed it. The menu is well thought out having only the default applications listed in the main folder. The extras menu allows them to put all the less used items in one place with the same structure. The extras menu allows me to to keep my menus simple. I want to have koffice installed as well as openoffice, but I don't want the menu to have 20 items.
