Why No Christmas Promo?

["Dr. David M. Colburn" <kd4e arrl net>]

Am headed out to purchase RH8 at CompUSA today and noticed that there is
no sale promo.

It seems odd that a company interested in enlarging its market share
would not authorize retailers to give some sort of holiday discount, 10%
off, $5. or $10. rebate or something.

I want to be able to use the automated update feature, get the manuals,
and to support Red Hat so I will buy a copy in any case.  Perhaps I can
figure out why RH8 fails to recognize the SanDisk CF Reader via the
manual ... or perhaps one of the updates repairs the flaw.

Blessings ... doc
