Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 review

		Product	Date	Editors' Rating	Members' Rating	Price
		Windows Small Business Server 2008 This is an impressive update to Microsoft's Small Business Server that packs a big punch. However, it may be overkill for a lot of companies and isn't quite as easy to manage as it first appears.	12 Nov 2008	8.2
		Windows Server 2008 Windows Server 2008 is easier to install and manage than previous versions, and has many new and improved features that should encourage organisations to upgrade.	27 Feb 2008	7.5
		Linux Fundamentals This is a solid first training course for newcomers to corporate Linux.	01 May 2007	6.5		£945
		Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Production-quality XenSource virtualisation is the main selling point here, with optional clustering and storage virtualisation to go with it. But there’s a lot more besides, making the new Red Hat Enterprise Linux a compelling solution for businesses of all sizes.	03 Apr 2007	8.2		£194
		Sun Solaris 10 Significant performance, availability and feature enhancements make Solaris 10 an automatic choice for existing Sun customers. But as an alternative to Linux, it doesn’t yet deliver.	21 Apr 2005	6.8
		SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 This is a significant update, with important scalability and management enhancements positioning it ahead of the competition, and as a rival to Microsoft's latest Windows Server 2003 product.	06 Dec 2004	7.3
		Windows Services for Unix 3.5 Microsoft's Windows Services for Unix will be most useful if you've already made the decision to switch platforms. This free download will also make life easier for Unix experts who need to use a Windows desktop system.	05 Apr 2004	7.0
		Windows Small Business Server 2003 For small companies that need a business in a box and want to stick with Microsoft technology, SBS 2003 is the only game in town.	01 Mar 2004	7.8		£399
