How about a different RHEL offering. One that offers the access to previous revisions. The least cost RHEL sub is $99. Would a legacy stream be worth $49? $29? Seems like there is a market they could serve and still make some $.

Remember Cash on Delivery. They charged a fee for that. Would you be willing to pay extra so you could pay COD? Is there any provider that still does COD?

If you had the need for a low level tech person, would this certificate be enough for you to hire them?
