[Bioclusters] how are the Redhat product changes affecting existing and future plans?

[Nox]

Am am very familiar with APT-RPM, as well as URPMI, as well as up2date,
My security consulting firm uses RH for many services,
so I have become used to it.

But it just doesn't  stack up, for me at least,
it has never performed as well as my Deb box.

Also for Drake, their package manager,
which uses URPMI source style listing, is a pain.
Often I have to alter whats on mandrakeClub, to receive the hdlist 
properly

Forgive me, I will never side with anything over Deb,
and it tends to get me going (Since 1995)
