How much memory do they have? How long does an 'apt-get <anything>' take to run, compared to debian with equivalent hardware?

Last time I tried up2date it was less that worthless. (admittedly that was about 2 years ago) It had almost no packages it could update, and didn't work half of the time (or more). | You can get a really great implimentation of apt-get for Red Hat at | http://www.freshrpms.net. See my first post in this mini-thread. That's where I got apt from, and it was worthless on the box I had available to me. -D -- The truly righteous man attains life, but he who pursues evil goes to his death.
