"Q: I've heard about different graphical user interfaces (GUIs) available for Linux. How can I try a different one?"

"A: On most distributions, including Red Hat Linux, you have a choice of multiple GUIs. GNOME/Enlightenment and KDE (K Desktop Environment) are the most popular and widely used desktop environments, but you might also have a choice of AnotherLevel, WindowMaker, AfterStep, FVWM2 and others. "
