In my opinion, RPMS are the best thing since slice bread. Sure, it maybe "too easy" for a LINUX guru, but it sure makes life easier. As for the cost of disks tread......... Most of the red hat disks I've obtained from magazines or in the back of books. I recently purchased a red hat box, for the copy of StarOffice included. I've tried to download copies, but have yet to reach success. Its just funny to think you can "buy" a copy of an operating system, for as much as it costs you for 2 weeks of an internet connection here in the US. Since the end of the dot com Gold Rush in the US most of my European collogues have be lulled away back home, because they can earn much more money. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx _______________________________________________ Redhat-devel-list mailing list Redhat-devel-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-devel-list
