[Eug-lug] Linux and Gnu --> Ready for PrimeTime vis-a-vis Laptops? 3 Perpetual Newbie questions

If you have a business need for RHEL take a look at CentOS. I took a
look at whitebox a bit ago.  If you are used to RHEL or want to use
RHEL rpm's.  You can install RHEL rpm's on CentOS with out any
problems.  ( If you run into problems let me know.  I've not found a
RHEL rpm that does not work on CentOS. )
