Comment on CentOS 7 released on x86_64parent

CentOS is a repackaged RHEL, with all the Red hat IP (logo's, artwork etc.) stuff stripped out. So it's almost the same distribution.

As such, the only advantage RHEL probably offers next to support are slightly faster updates.

And actually being able to call redhat can be very useful once in while when you are having a really bad day.

Given that the OP said "other than support", I'll assume you mean they're actually nice and supportive when call to complain about your day :)

Thanks! I somehow completely read over that part :) But my my single experience with RedHat support was a real pleasure.
