Mandrake 9.0 or RedHat 8.0?

[Abigail]

Hey Guys!

I'm going to install Mandrake 9.0 or RedHat 8.0


is mandrake faster than Redhat?
is redhat good for KDE3?
is mandrake easier than redhat? (I want an easy distro)

help me out guys witch one shall I choose?

SuSE 8.1

ooh helpful    .

But Butter is right. There are several 'user friendly Distros' the top three seem to be Mandrake, RH and Suse, all of which are used by people here. Mandrake is historically based on RedHat. Try out both and see which one suits YOU.

I have never tried RH8 yet but will in the future. Right now I'm running Mandrake 9 which is easy as hell to install and use.But it's really up to you, just try one and see how it is.

RedHat 8, KDE 3

Red Hat kicks is ownage.
 You can select from plain old easy as hell using the GUI or you can go all crazy and go old school using commands. Combines both worlds.

Well, I haven't tried either yet, but from what I've heard and read, RedHat 8.0 is the way to go. I've used Mandrake in the past (8.1 and 8.2) as well as RedHat (6.0, 6.2, 7.1) and liked RedHat more. Anyway, it's up to you. Both distros are really user friendly so you shouldn't have any problems setting up your Linux box.

RedHat is better, faster, leaner, meaner, and the people who use it are much better looking.

Redhat is better, but there are some in and outs that make it more complicated than Mandrake.  So if your willing to spend that time to learn a few new things, go with RedHat.

Thank you guys!  

I'm going to install RedHat 8.0 tomorrow and see if i like it

oh how easily swayed! try as many linuces as you can, also try out a few floppy disk based linuces for fun too. Personally i use mandrake and i like it, but i haven't used red hat since 7.0 (and it was good too).
