This is the most outrageous thing I have ever heard of.
Red Hat, Inc. is about as much like Microsoft as Linux is like Windows.
Red Hat is trying to make money. WTF is wrong with that? There is more than one Linux distribution that got its start and continues to remain viable by DIRECTLY copying the Red Hat product. How in the world can anyone compare THAT to ANYTHING like MS?
The bottom line is that Linux is Linux. You can make any one distro look like any other distro right down to the last character. Red Hat attempts to add value through whatever means they see fit, as does SUSE, Debian, and every other Linux distro.
What's good for Red Hat is good for Linux in general and anyone that doesn't see that is a complete and utter fool.
Show me a "hardcore" user that is discouraged by ANYTHING to do with version numbers and I will show you an idiot... oh wait.. I see one now... its YOU.
