I am ...
Sick and tired of Fedora's sometimes poorly tested updates and able to
rebuild the things I need, I chose WBEL as a base for my workstation. I
build NTFS and ALSA RPM's for each new kernel that gets released and I
rebuild KDE whenever a new version is out. Other than those RPM's I'm
running a pretty vanilla WBEL machine.
The minute RHEL will add kernel support for firmware uploading, as is needed
for my WiFi card, I'll convert my laptop as well. I like the idea of not
having to upgrade each year or quicker because somebody feels I'm using
outdated software.
Yes I know there are other distro's, but having used RedHat both personal
and professional for almost 5y now means I like things that feel familiair
(I tried Gentoo once and after a week of fighting it I came back running to
the RedHat way of things)
