I don't refer to S.u.S.e and/or Debian, I don't want to enter a
religious war. Regarding to 5.0 vs. 4.2:

is 5 stable enough:       yes
or is it buggy:           yes
then maybe 4.2 is better: no chance

5.0 is much better, but you must fix some things manually during the
installation. After fixing these things, you'll have a much better OS.
So if you are not a newbie, 5.0 is recommended (after evaluating RH
5.0, even Ziff-Davis admitted that it wins NT!).

(The optinions expressed here are based on my own experience!)
