you dumb cluck --
many people DID buy from RH. If you've purchased a dell server over the past 3 years, you would have received RH 7.3, 8, then finally 9.
There are -thousands- of dells in racks running perfectly fine with RH 7.3 and 8. The only updates needed are for security & errata. People who own these machines almost universally subscribe to RHN to get these updates conveniently and easily.
And now, RH is saying "sorry, we don't make enough off your RHN subscriptions, upgrade or go away". This is microsoftian.
What are people who have perfectly-running servers supposed to do?
