Re: Launching Applications

I assume therefore that Red Hat is way more heavyweight than XP professional, because I have a dual boot system, and I can launch the entire Office suite and lightning speed. The norm nowadays may be 2Ghz+/512Mb, but 650Mhz/384Mb should be more than enough to run basic admin/office applications in RH.

Just wondering, here, but if most of the apps, in question, aren't 
actually written by Red Hat, but merely compiled by Red Hat for inclusion 
in their distribution, how do you actually find credibility in that 
statement?

  
Try running redhat-config-services. The gui will give a list of services.  As you highlight each one it will tell you about the service and the status of the service.  You can edit your services here for different service levels (level 3 and 5 are most used)
