That's not all, I was working on my cousin's box one day fixing something,
and needed YAST, and the whole thing loaded up. I was on a RedHat box doing
testing at the time and YAST loaded up all the way in GUI mode, and his
machine was at his house and I was at my house, and YAST was in full gui
mode.

That looked neat having YAST on a RedHat box. I took a screen shot I have
somewhere.
