I am looking at upgrading our Linux workstations at work. We run Redhat 7.0 right now, and would normally just upgrade to the latest Red Hat but now they charge $$ now for the OS, which used to be a free download. I am considering SUSE Linux as well. We use Linux as a technical desktop in an engineering firm, and I also use it to run application servers like Tomcat and other Java apps. Any recommendations?

hilow,
I'm running RH 9.0 which I upgraded to the newest 2.6 kernel. very stable, but you have to install most of the software from different sources (in my opinion the best way to have an up to date system). Fedora is based on the latest rh distibution, features the latest kernel and is free of charge ... As you might guess , i hate the suse distributions ...
