gecko pace?

Yes but is that not a bit 'old', *Fedora* is the upto date thing to run apparently ?unofficial? rh.
If you are an enterprise, you pay for RH or SLES. Sles sells as well to those "hairy bosses" that just understand the need of enterprise and don't play sysadmining home, with 3 pcs and a suse professional box running apache the the powerfull mysql database.

Yes something that makes ldap (aka 'enterprise' thing) nicer to run is good, but that can be done elsewhere.
Indeed Suse and other distros have their faults but underneath its still the same linux source code. Its nice to say that distro a can run on a 'desktop' with features x y and z and also works on a server.
Don't get me wrong - RH had some good ideas, and making linux friendly to corporates is good.
But I never knew that you needed more than four pcs to run Redhat something! So lets agree to disagree (before this goes very ot)
My feelings.
