RH EW should be compared to MS high end server options. MS does not, as yet, have a product to compete at the lever that AS is on. The RH WS option is better compared to Solaris or other high end systems. Tell me how WinXP is a better financial choice over the free RH Linux option? And as for updates, you can run current or yum on a system inside your organization and now you get updates for free, too. -- Farewell neighbor.
