+===== Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS =====
+Red Hat Enterprise Linux or RHEL is a commercially supported distro
+[[http://www.redhat.com/]] that has been around since 1995.
+\\\
+Since it's one of the major commercial distros, other commercial
+vendors, HP, IBM, etc, officially support some of their products with
+this distro.  Since there are numerous distros, they can only afford
+to officially support a few.
+The packages included in an enterprise Linux version have been time
+tested ("Soak time") rather than being the latest versions.
+For more information see the link above or see
+[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat]].
+Since RHEL is open source, it is possible to create a distro that
+contains the same packages but is community supported rather than
+paying for a support contract from Red Hat.  Some companies using
+Linux want garanteed support contracts and are willing to pay for
+them.
+CentOS [[http://centos.org/]] is a community supported version of RHEL.
+Since there are no license fees, you can have all the development
+machines you want without paying any license fees to Red Hat.
+One of the project goals of CentOS is to NOT fork from RHEL.
+Therefore, bugs found in CentOS and any fixes are fed back to Red
+Hat.
