I'm typing this from a RHCE classroom. I'm taking RH300 Rapid Track. It's been very good and as advertised. It's for folks that have dealt with RH installs before and want to "fill in around the edges".
On the Matrox G550 in Win2k it puts the window in a close corner where I can grab it with the mouse.
And yes, you can usually right click on the program in the task bar and select move, then use the cursor keys to put it on the desktop. I don't use Winamp, so I can't comment on that.
I agree, I have a very hard time using a single monitor. I love the Matrox G550 Dual(under Win2k). And yes, under Linux it does lock up for no apparent reason, usually when I'm trying to log out. Very annoying.
They have Linus working for them. Why not get something that runs a linux distro on it? Would it be that hard to NOT use M$?

Not everyone is an admin and understands the usefullness of symlinks, seperate filesystems, and having (and acutally properly using)/usr/local.
I've had some "seasoned" admins that I've worked with for a few years actually look suprised when I mentioned that you could (gasp) mount/usr as a read only file system if you really needed to protect it.
...and where would this project happen to be?

I like TinyDNS. I use it on my personal server. I think it's the greatest.
However at work, we use BIND. Why? Cause it's the "lowest common denominator". All the admins know at least the basics on how it works and could probably update the zone files if they had to, even if they don't deal with it on a daily basis like I do.
The stronger (i.e. lots of vitality) apps tend to get more community support. By better, I mean from a implementation standpoint.
It's kind of a shotgun effect. Sourceforge and freshmeat are perfect examples. At freshmeat you just need to filter on popularity to see what I mean. The well run projects that are tools community finds useful and stable will tend to be at the top. But you will typically have a choice among several project. You don't have to take the top one.
Microsoft can't do that in public. We've seen proof of that time and again. Their closed source model has gotten them in trouble time and again.
Many stores don't do the "return" part, they only exchange it for the Same Thing. Meaning that if you by the latest Stones CD, you can only echange it for the (suprise) latest Stones CD.

I mean... all of us here at /. could probably do a better could, er, code, review than whoever did that one.

Real sys admins use a command line anyway (JOKE).

A link would help.

Once M$ really gets going on squashing this, that's it.
Nuff said.
Better fit, don't you think.

Something like this?

Can't wait for the tour.
Isn't that what Open Source is all about?
I'm sure they'd like a peek.
