Red Hat The up to now highly anticipated Red Hat Linux 9 is finally released. OSNews had its hands to the final version of Red Hat Linux 9 for over 3 weeks now and we were able to evaluate it in a number of ways. The final version is not too different than the Phoebe-3 beta for which we wrote a preview recently.

MPlayer

OK, everyone needs to stop bashing RH for not including MPlayer by default. RH is doing what it can to keep their distro free for download.

Sure, it's stupid... but that's life in the US now, with DMCA & other ridiculous laws. RH is just covering their ass. Besides, if you can't get MPlayer installed, just give $299 to Microsoft and they will be happy to help you out ;)
