O right, sorry, I was talking about RHEL, just didn't notticed the talk was about RHL, as RHL doesn't exist anymore.

@Walter

And I'm having the same doubt, why CentOS is so despicable? Just to know.

Or is Scientific Linux technically better than CentOS, and that's why you choose it instead?

I know you were talking about RHL, I was replying to Ismael.

Yes, I'm aware of that. Rule of thumb: if it's free it's not RHEL.
If free is what you're after: CentoOS, Fedora, etc.
