[wellylug] Redhat Stopping Redhat linux!?

[Rob Giltrap]

What RedHat are doing is providing "RedHat Enterprise Linux" as a well 
supported comercial offering and "Fedora Linux" which is a cutting edge 
community involved "free & unsupported" distro for the enthusiast and 
developer. RedHat no longer really have a product tailored to the 
average home consumer as it costs too much to support with little 
revenue generation (at this stage).

This certainly gives an opportunity to Mandrake who seem to be a little 
more successful in the home consumer space but also doubles down 
RedHat's efforts to deliver on the enterprise systems. They have also 
stated that when the market is right they are likely to produce a new 
product.
