My God! It’s full of red hats!

For the Linux geeks out there, if you haven't installed RedHat 8 yet, MY GOD the font rendering is beautiful. It comes pretty darn close to looking as nice as MacOSX's if you pick decent default fonts.
Mozilla is making builds for RedHat 8 with support for the Xft font renderer available in RH8, it looks just *incredible*.
Also, if you haven't checked it out, there's an incredibly handy utility called cpan2rpm for making RPMs out of basically any perl module. It'll do pretty much everything for you, it just saved me about 2 hours of work getting my system happy here at work.
Yay!
