    Ok I've already got Red Hat Linux 8.0, but I just aqquired SuSE Linux today (for a whole $2.00 ). I've not really had time to get to know Red hat and of course having just gotten the new SuSE I've not gotten to know it either...but I am curious as to which you guys prefer and why...

    Also any tips of how to get used to it...I'm not fimilar with Unix and hence therefore linux either, any good sites with basic universal commands for the command prompt?

      Well, if you're going for Redhat, may as well go for Redhat 9.0

        Command line commands just use the nice Gui interface. Oh that doesn't work.

                I throw my own together. I guess you'd say LFS, but I've been doing it since before I'd heard of LFS.

                  So i am a really using Red Hat Linux since the 7.2 Version and i find it terrific.

                  I live Gnome and Red Hat, because they are really good in building Distris. The good Thing is the Update Service with apt-get and Synaptic.
                  Yours faithfully,

                          Beware, RedHat doesn't include any MP3 capability.
