Well, here on OSNews, there has been plenty of discussion about Red Hat 8, what it is, what it isn't, the Bluecurve look and many other features and issues. I ordered Red Hat 8 Personal Edition and decided to see how close Red Hat 8 may be to a distribution that Joe and Jane User could install and use.

I personally like RedHat 7.3 better, but felt it had way to much software, and I had no clue what software I needed on a custom install. I liked the Options better, everything... I felt like I was using a Linux system earlier version I felt like I was using a RedHat system because most of the time it was doing things the RedHat way. Now I feel like I"m back to having to do things the RedHat way. I don't think Mandrake should have been called 9.0 it still feels like a small upgrade of 8.2, but Redhat seems like a big change.
