RedHat can be downloaded for free, but the updates (out of the box) require RHN. You
can install 3rd party update applications but this is a work system and they (my
company) are not receptive to "free" tools. We are pushing out Patchlink so this
may be less of an issue, but the idea of CentOS is that we'll need fully compatible
systems at a low cost. We can't update via RHN on non-licensed machines.
