I think RedHat has recognized that the best support for home desktop users is the community. That is the way things have pretty much been working anyway. RedHat's only money making comes from enterprise users. So they are just blessing the existing community. I think community-based support seems to work better than any corporate-sponsered support. (Ever try to get support from Microsoft for anything? Reboot, reinstall, sorry you're out of luck. Consider upgrading.)
