Red Hat Though Red Hat is poised to roll out its much-anticipated Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 release shortly, work still continues on previous versions of RHEL. This week Red Hat rolled out a beta release of its fifth update to RHEL 4 officially tagged Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.5, providing users with a small taste of the virtualization that is to come in RHEL 5.

Hummmmm, yes.

RHEL != Fedora != Ubuntu != Mandriva etc...

Everyone have its own best distribution.

Absolutely. And promoting a distro as something that it is not does a disservice to *everyone*, including, and even *especially* the distro being misrepresented.

Because then people try it out expecting it to be one thing, and are disappointed that their expectations were not met.

When I call someone on public statements they make about Fedora, that is almost always my point. But I think a lot of people miss it, thinking that I just want to trash the distro.
