Stepping steadily toward the sort of reliability that will allow it to compete feature-for-feature with expensive commercial operating systems, Red Hat Linux 7.2 Professional includes a more refined and capable kernel as well as a filesystem that allows for speedy recovery from abrupt shutdowns. Better hardware detection, an improved multi-boot utility, and some nice administrative tools round out the upgrades that make this product appealing to anyone who needs to provide network services, either to a local-area network (LAN) or to the Internet. Excellent technical support and all-around improvements in usability and design make this Red Hat release even better. The ext3 filesystem makes this the most reliable Professional version of Red Hat Linux for servers ever. The interface and usability improvements are merely gravy--but valuable gravy for administrators who lack the time to figure out unintuitive tools. Red Hat Linux 7.2 Professional is a fantastic upgrade, as well as a great way to start providing network services under Linux. --David Wall As you'd expect, Red Hat Linux 7.2 Professional supports more hardware (including USB and FireWire hardware) than any of its predecessors. For starters, it supports about 500 printers that weren't supported before. Auto-detection of hardware is much better now, as well--the installation routine correctly identifies many new (and obscure) sound and video cards. GNOME 1.4 and KDE 2.2.1 provide slick graphical user interfaces, while an assortment of administrative tools--you'll have to play with them to see what you like--eases adjustments to user privileges, network services, and shared resources like printers. This edition also ships with a lot of software development goodies, including the IBM Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1. Read more Red Hat Linux 7.2 Professional
