I always use the terminal screen anyway :-)
BTW.
There are lots and lots of BIG hosting companies that support CENTOS in
various ways:
- VPS
- Managed or Root Access Dedicated server
- or even shared hosting.
And lots of BIG companies that use CENTOS. Just because you see a RHEL
badge or code block somewhere, don't be fooled into thinking otherwise!
If the customer is that big - then tell them to buy get a quad/dual core
server that supports a minimum 10 disk RAID array or even set-up a
cluster or server farm; and fill it with very large hard drives.
A 'big customer' could easily afford a blade server so then you can have
an easy time setting up/managing volume management.
The best RHEL alternative to Centos 4/5 is Fedora 6.

Forget RHEL. Use CENTOS 5.1 [ simply download DVD 1 and use the web

Centos is simply the most stable version of RHEL.
Any RHEL, FEDORA guide/book/article works with CENTOS.
They are interchangeable and look exactly the same [minus the colour
scheme and logos]
... and the proprietary tools (which don't work properly anyway) like the
graphical volume management. Command-line vm tools are excellent.
Hopefully another big company will be using CentOS soon, to support a big
customer.
