I recently tried WS Rel 3 and elected to reinstall RH9. Rel 3 installed ok and ran fine; however, I was disappointed with the selection of applications available. I use Gnucash and it was missing as well as others in the multimedia area. As an enterprise solution, it probably fits well with the needs of major companies but for a home user, it fell short of what I wanted. I also had a difficult time locating a source of RPM's built for Rel 3. That may have changed since December. There was so much missing that I did not want to install from the tar files. Anyway, I am sorting out the options myself.
