However, just to make a point, it runs Windows XP Pro, and Office 2003 - hardly the latest and greatest that Microsoft has to offer. A RHEL 5 desktop would provide me similarly aged (or newer) software. RHEL/CentOS also gets hardware enablement throughout it's lifecycle, so the "newer laptops need newer software" only holds true through the beginning of the Production 2 support phase at minimum, by which time the next release of RHEL should be available (for RHEL 5, this date is 3/31/2011) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
