With that in mind we can safely state the original question was NOT off topic. I'm sorry if some people here are uncomfortable with the question but it's also inappropriate to continue this debate as nothing will come from it.. except perhaps a new TOS from redhat :-)
I totally agree with Rodolfo's comment below. This was an opportunity for RedHat to "learn" why someone would rather not use their product. That is why I responded almost immediately asking him why was he looking for another distro? It's very possible that RedHat provides whatever he was looking for. He simply could have been unaware of the "feature". BTW, he never did reply to my question (or I simply missed it). What was he looking for that RedHat couldn't do? Oh and yes I've gone to restaurants and asked where I can find a good restaurant... Usually I'm looking for something they don't have (chinese vs italian vs mexican for example). It's not that unusual of a question guys :-) Frank > At 1/29/2002 01:10 PM -0500, you wrote: > >> Bottom line is a representative from Red Hat has already said that the >> original post in the thread was inappropriate. > > > I disagree, Bob.
