Hi all,

I'm using Redhat 8.0 (2.4.20-28.8) everyday at work for more than a year 
now. I'm happy with it. I have vmware install for Window$2000 and 
QNX/Neutrino. I'm wondering if I should update my system or not. Am I 
obsolete with this setup and should I update to Fedora or another distro 
like suse, Mandrake or any other one?

My main use is for developing applications in C or C++ with libraries 
like fltk, MesaGL 6.0, glut 3.7, linpack and more. I mostly use g++ 
compiler. I use vmware to compile my applications under Window$2000 and 
QNX/Neutrino. So vmware must still works with the new distro/update.

What do you think I should do: update or not? Am I missing new stuff by 
not updating or changing to a new distro? Should I stay with Redhat 8.0?

Any advices are welcome!

regards,

Jean
