if im going to ask you.. what distro would you choose..
mandrake 9.1 or Red Hat 9?
do they have any similarities?
or what does mandrake 9.1 got that Red Hat 9 doesnt have and vice versa?
just wanna hear your opinions..
thank you very much and God bless!
IMO Mandrake 9.1 is a little better than Red Hat 9 - I have them dual booted on a Westren Digital 20gig - The Mandrake Control centre is excellent for a newbie and the KDE Control Centre is superior to Gnome's one - I also prefer KDE to Gnome. Nice to see everthying mounted nicely in Mandrake - good for newbies
All in all - if your a newbie - choose Mandrake 9.1 - however if your more experienced choose either - Red Hat's got its good points too (so has gnome - I just prefer KDE)
