It's interesting to note how this is similar to the way Microsoft is
handling their workstation versus server OS releases.  Notice that
Windows XP (the desktop, workstation class OS) was released, without a
Server counterpart.  Later on, Microsoft releases Windows Server 2003. 
MS seems to be divorcing it's "enterprise" server OS from the
desktop/workstation class.

Looks like Red Hat is doing the same thing.
