I'm an enterprise user with 1500 RedHat desktops. RedHat does meet my
demands.
I would say that Wireless support is not even in the top twenty most
important things to an Enterprise user because our machine density
would make the speed of any wireless network slow to a crawl. With a
wired network we can get +100Mb/s to every desktop, and that is much
more important. If RedHat had left out the driver for some industry
standard wired network card, then we would have cause to complain.

to choose an enterprise distro is for support.
Are you intentionally being obtuse? It's Intel's blob, and it is
not Open Source. It is not Red Hat's. Red Hat has no ability to
modify or fix the blob. That is not Red Hat's fault, it's Intel's.
If anyone should be working with the hardware vendors its RedHat
not me. It boils down to whether redhat is able
to meet the demands of the enterprise desktop user. The
unfortunate answer is no.
You're in the minority.
