Hi, Personally, I think the statement from RH is complete crap. Linux is fit for all and fit for all now. My five year old has been using RH for the past 3 years and whizzes around it faster than any other OS (including Windows at hit school). I've conducted experiments at work with 10 machines, 5 linux and 5 win xp. Both set to *look* the same, so it really was a blind test. They both had OOo 1.1 on, Moz 1.5 and anything else you would expect to see (inc. Evolution and Scribus). EVERY SINGLE PERSON prefered the linux boxes as they were faster, more stable and far simpler to navigate. Over 100 people took part in the experiment as well. Anyone who thinks that Linux is not ready for the home market should look at Lindows and how well that is selling. Linux *is* ready and has been since RH 7.3 (ish). Sheesh! You try like mad to educate people into using machines that do what the user wants and not what MS thinks you want and then the head of the best known Linux company comes out with the pile of utter garbage he did! Talk about opening your mouth to change foot!
