A friend has a small company with  Novell network.

It has served very well for many years.

He is having troubles finding someone to support Novell and wants to move to
something else.

His work stations are basically MS (98, 2K, XP).

MS people are telling him to go MS.

I am telling him to go Linux and am leaning to CentOS.  He is willing.

I want to be absolutely certain (if there is such a thing) that CentOS Linux
will not be a mistake.

Any negative war stories about CentOS serving an MS workstation world?

What about Raid?

We are probably going to build the box and want quality components.  Any
recommendations on the best (if there is such a thing) Mobo?

I feel comfortable with power supplies and memory.  Any other components of
a critical (quality wise) nature?

It's a small co, less than 10 workstations in the foreseeable future.

Therefore what would be a good minimum for:

  CPU speed?

  Memory size and speed?

  Other?

Thnx,

George
