My company has installed numerous instances of Red Hat v9 desktops because it is an industry leader.
With the fedora model, I am no longer convinced that I will receive timely security and bug fixes.
I am also no longer convinced that when something says it runs on Red Hat, it will stay true to Fedora.
We do not call Red Hat for support but security and bug fixes are a must and I can no longer trust this model.
I understand that Red Hat was probably losing money making a boxed or downloadable version, I am extremely dissappointed.
If Red Hat will not do a desktop, there are others that will.
As a hobbyist, I can take the time to play around with Fedora ( but not likely ) on my home systems and but corporately, this is not true.
See ya around Red Hat.
It was nice knowing you.
