One thing that I couldn't find the answer for, 
How long Red Hat Professional Workstation is going to be supported in term of 
updates for security release? Is it as long as RHEL (what, 4 years)? 

Is RHEL 3 based on pretty much RH 9? For example, does anyone knows what glibc 
version that it uses.

Thanks.
