Re: Novell to acquire SUSE

[Tom Kitta]

Well there is just a small problem with the enterprise edition, cost. It is very expensive solution as far as Linux goes. RH Linux 7.* was nice since it was a free download and had all the bells and whistles one needs. Now with Fedora we have not a very reliable version and Enterprise solution is hard to justify as a buy in view of MS server software or other Linux distributions.

I guess it is time to look through Linux boards to see what the hardcore crowd is saying.

  It is my understanding that RedHat is discontinuing all sales of RedHat
  Linux, except for their Enterprise version. So, that'll leave you with two
  options - download Fedora (which is completely unsupported) or buy RedHat
  Enterprise.
