Bob Young himself is a good example of the reason for backlash. I met him at the last ISPCON in San Jose, and introduced myself, then had the opportunity to ask him a question or two, and IMHO he was quite arrogant, as he also was when Linus was featured at the show. This was the first time a company invested in Red Hat, and it went to their heads. I respect Marc and Donnie, and the others and have been a supporter for years, but it has been noticable. It's the OS and the *users* that made Red Hat, not Bob Young.

I would recommend SuSE 6.1 which ships May 3rd.
Seems the folks here at Slashdot push Red Hat mostly but SuSE is a very nice distro.
