Considering what we do for a living, not hard at all.  But that's what you get when sales people get in the middle.  To quote directly:

"Generally speaking we want an SA involved with the client up front for RHEV to ensure it goes well. The initial configuration is not as straightforward as I will be with subsequent releases. If you can wait the two weeks, I would prefer that Michael work with you and get you the eval upon his return so you don't waste cycles on installation."

I tried to press but they went unresponsive.  Mind you, this seems to be par for the course in terms of Red Hat's customer relations, at least in my experience.  Sad, really.
