I turned my personal workstation (Dell Dimension 4300) into a dual boot RH 8
/ Win2K Pro. Talk about serious eyecandy with RH 8. Already in the first
few days I had a lot of "Can-you-get-me-one-of-those" remarks, just about
the desktop. Like Mike stated, install was a breeze. The citrix client is
pretty smooth as well, and allows me to switch back more quickly than
rebooting, in case I need to use a MS application.
Even though it isn't ready to replace MS desktops on the workfloor, the new
GUI is definitely a big step in that direction....

2 cents worth.
Just installed Red Hat v. 8 on an older Dell PC. Installation was as easy
if
not easier than a typical Windows install. Even automatically detected and
configured my cable modem using USB cable.

I'm ready as soon as it's officially supported. However, I would
rather run FreeBSD. It's much mmore stable in my experience, and has
much better documentation than any Linux distro I have seen.
