Red Hat is the undisputed commercial leader when it comes to Linux distros. A few years ago more distros were sharing the Linux market/userbase, but these days Red Hat has overcome its competitors in impressions, sales and popularity. Popularity doesn't always mean quality though (look at Windows9x for example), so after our world's first review of Red Hat 8.0 a few months ago, I wanted to check out the new product, Red Hat 8.1, destined to be released sometime in the next one or two months. I downloaded and installed the third beta of 8.1, codenamed Phoebe, and gave it a whirl. We will be featuring a full review when the final version becomes available, but here is a preliminary report on the current status, accompanied by three screenshots. Update: Added one more screenshot.

What I really miss is ntfs, auto mount win partitions or an option to turn it on, also there should be some kind of network wizard, maybe there is? Other than that I find Red hat the best distro around, you have full fledged office suit with even MrProject included. Very nice. Only thing I can't understand is why having preferences, System settings, and system tools in the main menu? Maybe they should put them in accesories or at least System settings, and system tools.
Thank you RedHat and thank you Eugenia, it's allways nice to read your stuff
