"At this point the differences between the two distributions are fairly negligable."
One very important point to consider is Red Hat's reluctance to incorporate the timer patch into their kernel. While exchanging mail with a Red Hat saleman, I expressed concern about this ascpect of RH's offerings. The salesman then passed that on to the engineers, who replied that my concern was a "marketing concern" and that there were no mainframe linux roll outs with enough virtual machines for the timer pop to make a difference. Plain ignorant statements like that show that mainframe linux is not a priority with RH's engineers. BTW, I like Red Hat and wanted to stay with their product. Unfortunately, I have to go with the vendor that appreciates the subtleties of the platform. -- Michael Lambert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
