    I just moved into a role where I see the REHL bills. Total cost per license is more than what we pay for windows server, which was shocking to me.

      OTOH, it works much better than Windows Server.

        That may actually depend on which version of RHEL and in which decade the kernel was released... But yeah, that's more to blame the org that won't update and not on RH to provide weird backport kernels for a decade.

          You shouldn't be running Pentium Pro servers at this point in time. I mean, companies should. I have a couple ;-) But they are loud and spend most of their time powered down.
