<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm thinking of buying a new lap top to run Linux.
I've always been a Red Hat man.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>One of the things that I use Linux for is to
support my web site development activities. I work on web sites hosted on Linux
web servers. In the past I've always installed Linux including Apache, Perl etc.
and this has provided me with a development at testing environment. There was
always one product and so I installed all the desktop stuff plus whatever server
components I needed.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Checking out Red Hat now it seems to have gone down
a separate offerings route for server and workstation. This leaves me confused
as to which way I should be going on my brand shiny new lap top. Guess I could
always stick with my 7.1 disks but I reckon I ought to be looking to
upgrade.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any advice?</FONT></DIV>
