While I agree that the SCO FUD surrounding Linux was real at that time (we all felt it), Red Hat was one of the most respected, functional, and widely-implemented distributions for the entire time SCO was in the news headlines.
- Kye 4y agoIt was also a huge pain if my experiences (early-mid 2000s) with Fedora are any indicator. Red Hat and co. were great because, given enough effort, they could be tuned into unshakable systems for any purpose. And you paid for that with your time and energy (or a support contract with Red Hat itself) and occasional frustration at things that didn't work like any other distribution.
