1. SLE 10 is binary compatible with SUSE Linux 10.1
2. SLE is available as an iso for free download and 60 day free support, RHEL is not available for download.
3. SLE costs between 50 - 70% cheaper than RHEL (Basic-ES-AS). IT staff drink more coffee than the cost of SLE subscription.
4. SLE includes clustering and other tools which require additional payment in RH.
5. Subjective point but openSUSE is more stable and polished than fedora, infact it is very close in finish to SLE than fedora is to RHEL.
All these make it quite pointless to have openSLE.
I thought was so obvious!!
