Anyone using Scientific Linux?
It's the house distro in the Faculty of Mathematics at Cambridge University, and I've used it quite a bit on the communal machines there.
As far as scientific software is concerned, FreeFEM++, Maxima and Gnuplot from the Scientific Linux repositories work nicely. Axiom and AUTO07p have to be built from source.
Never installed Scientific Linux on any of my own machines, mainly because the administrators of the Scientific Linux website have (had?) a habit of letting their security certificates lapse, resulting in lots of dire browser warnings.
