Price a problem? CentOS is free of charge. It also costs less.
OK, Fedora is free.
But you have to reinstall a new version every year to keep getting
security updates.
I'm talking about not paying licensing for Red Hat
Enterprise, Suse Enterprise etc. Your saying CentOS is far more
reliable than Fedora? They're all Linux right? Fedora is on the edge
of development, I understand that, but that seems to be a good place,
latest features, latest patches, latest security fixes. Still get
security patches and updates with CentOS right? What are you saying is
the difference?
Centos is rebuilt from RHEL source rpms, minus the trademarked name and
artwork. And it inherits the 7-year security/bug fix cycle so you don't
have to reinstall all the time unless you want different features.
Centos5 has approximately the same application versions you would have
found on fedora FC6.
