      FWIW, I've been running Red Hat distributions since version 4.1. My
    experience has taught me to avoid all x.0 distributions. Of all of 'em, 5.0
    was the least bothersome; 6.0 was a major PITA and I didn't bother upgrading
    from 6.2 to 7.3 until last month.

      There are plenty of folks -- at least, locally -- who run multiple
    distributions, play and hack to their heart's content. I, on the other hand,
    use my systems in a production environment, to run my business. I'll leave
    the testing and tuning of the bleeding edge to those and I'll remain safely
    back from the edge. :-)
