Corporations see RedHat 9 and Red Hat Advanced Server, one costs $60 and is free to install on unlimited systems, the other one is $2000 and isn't. Since both have the RedHat name, the corporations naturally go with the cheaper one. So Redhat is changing this. By taking their name off the product, they do not have to worry about the quality, security bugs, etc. It is now officially a volunteer project, one that guarantees nothing and one where companies will not go near it. Very sneaky.
