Guys, the sentiment on Red Hat may be certainly laudable. They do fit a 
market niche that most of us wouldn't touch. A good review on RH9 lives 
in the current LinuxJournal August 2003, page 90.

Here's the recap on the left margin:

The Good

*nice fonts and overall look and feel.
*best of breed applications chosen for consistency
*educational software included
*stable and good ardware recognition

The Bad

*CD Burning may be problematic in certain conditions
*Some package dependencies are incorrect
*Excessive startup time for desktop and OpenOffice.org

Marco Fioretti wrrote the review.
