If you have some money, and aren't opposed to paying for your distro, I
highly recommend Libranet.  It's essentially an easy to install Debian
(mixed sarge/woody, with all packages selected tested for
interoperability), with a kick-arse administration tools menu.  Plus
they have some good, helpful people in the forums, and they're quick
about returning emails.

I'm confused.  I received this today from RH:

"Red Hat will discontinue maintenance and
errata support for Red Hat Linux 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 and 8.0 as of December 
31, 2003. Red Hat will discontinue maintenance and errata support for 
Red Hat Linux 9 as of April 30, 2004. Red Hat does not plan to release 
another product in the Red Hat Linux line."

Does this mean I should consider trying another distro of linux?  I've
been wanting to for a while, I just haven't had the time really or any
good reasons to yet.

Any wisdom is always appreciated. =)
