Which Linux Desktop Holy Wars!

Red Hat? You don't want RedHat. You want SuSE.

Buggerit, that reminds me, I was meant to be sending him a driver!

Buy a TW7223, and run my driver for it...arse, I haven't finished it

Buy a LookC video board and run my motion capture software...arse, I
haven't finished it yet.

Install KDE2 and run my house management software...arse, I haven't
started it yet.
