Star Red Hat Linux 9 - World's First Look at Shrike

Red Hat I installed Red Hat Linux 9 (Shrike) to see what has changed between it and the previous major version of Red Hat (8.0). The article features some installation screenshots and of course some post-install screenshots showing Bluecurve in Gnome and KDE (more shots here), user experience and discussion of whether you should upgrade or not.

MP3 support

While it would be much more convenient if RedHat included the MP3 and Xine stuff, I can't fault them for not including it. They are currently the most visible Linux company and the patent/royalty issues are definitely real. Other distributions may one day regret including these libraries. From a business perspective, it is probably the right decision (especially since RedHat cares more about the business desktop than the home desktop).
