I'm having some problems with the way the conversation is going. RedHat
*was* a company; to me, the RHEL was aimed as a wedge, to get into
corporate America. For that matter, who started offering their distro of
RHEL around then? Why, the same company that offered this new o/s on their
brand new product, the IBM PC in 1980: IBM.
RedHat, at least, has not taken the path to the Dark Side, as the Other
Company did....
