Re: Was my decission to buy RH 6.0 Official a wise one?

["Luis Perez" <luis mildatasol com>]

I am with you my friend, I am kind of tired of M$ and purchased RedHat 6.0
the "official" version.
I don't know what they mean by "official" though.
I was greatly disappointed at the manuals.
I would have been better off purchasing a $39.99 book with a Linux CD in it
and I would have learned a lot more !!
And that is what I had to do, I went to Barnes & noble and Purchased Linux
unleashed, now, I am kind of learning a bit, but you are right, I know now
why M$ became so popular, Anybody can install NT and administer it, not so
with Linux, despise all the publicity about Linux improving GUI and all
that, is still far behind NT as far as friendliness goes.
