I just want the "Ask Slashdot" original submitter to get the study, and let him and his client's CIO decide. But apparently my opinion of Slashdot moderation continues to hold true. Authoritative sources and studies don't get modded up, just opinions.
- http://linux.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=2500906&cid=37895636 I'll never forget when several of my colleagues, unique PhDs with expertise in a specific area of semiconductor technology, were basically lynched by the Slashdot mob. I stopped commenting back then. I guess this will be the end of my comments on Slashdot for another 5 years as well. And I should probably end my comments on this list too, since this is definitely non-technical and could be considered OT. Thanx to the list for letting me fill up their mailbox on this matter. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Musayev, Ilya" <imusa...@webmd.net> Sent: Monday, October 31, 2011 12:59 PM If it matters, run RedHat on prod hosts and centos on non-prod dev/qa.. You get support as main reason for justification. RedHat support improved tremendously over past 4 years. You may still get level one from india, but once you break through level one, you get fairly knowledgeable folks that can help. -----Original Message----- From: rhelv5-list-boun...@redhat.com [mailto:rhelv5-list-boun...@redhat.com] On Behalf Of Bryan J Smith Sent: Monday, October 31, 2011 12:40 PM I have no agenda. I just want the original "Ask Slashdot" individual to see the study for himself, and provide it to his client's CIO. I'll let them decide from that study, on its own merits. And I fully disclosed that the IDC study was funded by Red Hat. -- Bryan P.S. I made one more comment here, which goes beyond the "support" and TCO aspect ...

Nice post. Good luck. _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list rhelv5-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
