Announced over the weekend, IBM is looking to purchase RedHat for $33 Billion - one of their largest aquisitions.
When we ran our servers years ago, our servers used Redhat - until their pricing went insane and we moved everything to CentOS.
I believe we went from paying something like $20/server to $200. This was a yearly purchase, but with over 100 servers at that time, it was a big chunk of funds, for self-supported management.
Do any of the hosting companies here still use RedHat for their OS or has everyone moved to CentOS and other flavors?
