How similar is commercial Linux?

Hi all,

When our site discontinued its 35+ year use of IBM mainframe-based software for its administrative tasks, it switched to Solaris. At the time, brltty ran only on Linux, and since Sun-Linux docs said it would be patterned after Red Hat 7, I installed Red Hat on my home and work computers.

Now we're starting to investigate Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and since I'm literally the only one around here who uses Linux of any sort they're asking me a lot of questions.

How portable is my experience with Red Hat versions from 8 to Fedora 2 (soon to include Fedora 3 which is slated for release ca. November 1)? Is Enterprise Linux Desktop about comparable to Fedora, 4 CDs etc? Does anybody know how big Enterprise Linux AS is and how the file layouts and included products compare?

Thanks much for any info,
