RHEL 3.0 is supported with errata releases for five years. Any given fedora release does not. If we purchase one copy of RHEL 3.0, we'll be privy to those updates through the usual channels. Granted, the updates are already freely available, but I consider a yearly "contribution" a fair trade for the value I get from an OS that's supported for five years. If we get bigger, then we'll purchase porportionally more "copies". -Chuck -- Quantum Linux Laboratories - ACCELERATING Business with Open Technology * Education | -=^ Ad Astra Per Aspera ^=- * Integration | http://www.quantumlinux.com * Support | chuckw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx A: Because we read from top to bottom, left to right.
