So I've been tinkering with Unix since SCO Unix, but it wasn't until Debian/Ubun
tu that I started to really like using *nix like OSs. (That and I'm just tired o
f Windows bullshit). I used RedHat for a short while (couldn't tell you what ver
sion. 3? 4?). So what's RHEL mean? What makes Cent/Fedora different? Keep in min
d I am not super into kernal hacking or doing weird shit. I can build source if
I have a walkthrough/INSTALL file on hand, but I'm not a genious guy.

I got Xming working at my work PC, but what kind of bandwidth do you need? my up
stream pipe from home is like 10-15mbps so not amazingly fast. Seems really slug
gish, but maybe I have something setup incorrectly?
