The first is that the more expensive version allows you to email RedHat for support in getting the system setup. (Email only and only for setup is free. And a 30 day limit or some such.) The second difference is that one is much more expensive then the other one. Short take: buy it cheap. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk@1tree.net
