Thank you, this is what I thought.

It's still a hard decision. If the stability and "testedness" of RHEL is
anything to go by, it's not reassuring at all (although it may be better
than Fedora, I don't know), although I must say that RedHat support is
helpful at times.

Thanks again, I think I know enough :-)

Best regards,
