Oracle's Take On Red Hat Linux 165
darthcamaro writes "For nearly three years, Oracle has had its own version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, claiming the two versions are essentially the same thing. But are they really?

The Linux distribution part is there just to make sure people can get a freely available Linux operating system that is fully supported.'"
