If my needs were only personal then I would likely go with Mandrake, which I tri boot with RH and Win2k on my main workstation. But since RH IS the most recognized corporate Linux distro, I am forced to try and keep up with their releases for the time being unless things change...(United Linux??)
Never had problems with RedHat (that I couldn't fix) and over all am satisfied with it ... specially RedHat 8.0. Then again, I don't keep my workstations (four of 'em on diff. hardware) stock for long.
As far as the desktop goes though (Bluecurve) and their first attempt at a unified Gnome/KDE desktop, I am quite pleased, although I would still prefer to keep these two very different desktop environments separate. Maybe Gnome/KDE could collaborate on some common underlying menu/configuration/package-install-tools and be "unique" and "creative" with the rest?
