A month ago we published the world's exclusive review of Red Hat 8.0, Download Edition. In the meatime Red Hat, Inc. sent us a box of their newest product, Red Hat Professional. While the OS is pretty much the same as in the download edition and we have already made an extensive article on it, a few additional goodies await the customer in the box and we review them.

Maybe in the consumer market - a market SuSE isn't too well with. But with the specific target markets Red Hat is after, I don't see why the lack of "multimedia" apps is so bad. Especially since there is this link on RH's main page - http://www.redhat.com/advice/speaks_80mm.html
Enabling back MP3 support was easy enough, a few easy RPM downloads; plus the installations was quite easy. Sure, not something the Average Joe would do - but hey, Red Hat don't give a shit about them.
