RHEL is a great server platform.
It SUCKS as a desktop platform.
I would question why Jean-David chose it for a desktop, because it's
really not designed for that. It is designed for long-term stability,
which is exactly counter to being able to frequently upgrade to new
software.
Besides, who keeps (desktop) computers for 10 years? I refresh my
laptop every 3.
