Yes, of course... but I'm whining mostly over the fact that RHL 8.0 comes out.. we start testing it, we wait for the first erratas to come out so that it becomes more "mature".. we start porting it.. and within we're ready to start pumping out workstations or something like that to customers, there's another major release out so we need to start the freeking thing again.. and when we've installed and shipped the computer out, it's gone 9 months.. 3 months later, RedHat will stop making security fixes, etc. And buying an enterprise edition or something like that will make it cheaper to install Windows and port the system to Windows... a platform we've used years to convince customers to move _away_ from... RedHat is doing a great job technically, but marketing and product wise.. sorry, but you're making our lives harder, not easy. -- Phoebe-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/phoebe-list
