Red Hat This is by no means a technical review - it is just a summary of my experience as I was going along, installing and configuring a Red Hat Linux 9 machine. I installed the standard "workstation" installation on my 2 year old desktop machine. I like Gnome at home, KDE at work, but this review only covers my experience with the default Gnome installation.

Hmm. I have to say RedHat 9 is a lot better thatn 8.0 with respects to KDE.

a) It's faster
b) It isn't all screwed up by the RedHat Folks
c) Looks better.

Some other things:

- Seems to be less daemon bloat, much quicker boot.
- Overall seems quite polished.

Summary: 8.0 will no be forgotten - I think it was worse than 7.0.

Ohh an here's a mirror of the 3 RedHat 9 ISO's.
