No need to apologize. You echoed what many of us feel. When RH abandoned
their lower end products and made buying Linux from that as expensive as
buying Windows it left many of us home users in a bind. I'm willing to
pay for updates, but once the cost starts to approach the cost of
Windows (or higher) it's hard to justify to my wife that we should be
spending that much money when Windows is more compatible with software,
etc. When it's free or cheap it's less of a problem.
