I'm sure it is, but RedHat installs in 7 minutes (I walk away
while it grinds transferring stuff from cdrom to disk).
I just bought the very latest, version 6.1 (?) and am about
to upgrade from 5.2 ... KDE, Netscape, Star Office included, $19.95.

KDE is still in 6.x?  I (mis)read somewhere that it had gone completely Gnome.
I only have a shady understanding of these things anyway, so I guess that's why
I failed to comprehend.

Well, if HatRed can do "all this, and more", I think I'll have to follow the
crowd and go get it.  My local Waterstones is selling it for UKP 49.95, iirc, so
I'll have to go straight to the website.  Unf, Internet Exploiter sh*ts itself
quite nastily every time I try to go there.  Conspiracy theories, anyone?
