And this belongs off in alt.flame

WBEL, RBEL, and CenTOS (And Taos) are what they are.

I personally am getting less and less enchanted with the direction RedHat 
is taking on their distribution - I had Enlightenment running on RH9 with 
minor hair-pulling, but what worked for it is refusing to work under WBEL.  
I *REALLY* hate Nautilus, and how you have an extremely limited list of 
views under it...

However, on the up side, I'm having a lot of good results with apt-get and 
the FreshRPMS.net stuff for RH9 on WhiteBox.

So, we'll see what shakes out - *PERSONALLY*, what *I* want, is for RH to 
get its head out of its ass, and take back the segment of the market WBEL 
is aiming for.

Oh, and a new hard drive for my laptop, something a bit bigger than 10Gig, 
so I can try out a couple of different distros, find something a bit more 
to my tastes...  Maybe Mandrake or if someone is doing a pre-compiled 
Gentoo.
