It all works fine. I've had no problems with rh8, although as a > 'desktop user' I think I would hit more problems (especially with multimedia > stuff)! Thing is, that both 7.3 and 8.0 are currently both only supported until the 31st of december, so I see no advantage in going for 8.0 over 7.3, when 7.3 (in my experience at least) is more proven. And given what's been said today about RH 8, I'd sort of expect RH to end of life 8.0 before 7.3. That's rather based on how they've end of lifed their releases before of course, which may or may not have any bearing on the current situation. But I chose 7.3 :) Alex. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
