Re: Red Hat Fedora vs Enterprise Linux WS vs Desktop

It's basically for large(r) companies who need things like support
agreements, SLAs, update contracts (ie: don't stop upgrades after x
years.. MS does theirs for 8 or so years!). and vendor certification
(you will not be allowed to run Oracle and stuff on Fedora - gotta be
on a 'certified' distro).
