I'm sure if RedHat really wanted to capture this smaller market, they would
have a cheaper subscription model that gave updates only and no phone support,
maybe at >$100 per server/year. More companies might be able to manage this
smaller amount, especially if they wanted somewhat faster updates, as RedHat
has to release them first before CentOS can start their release cycle.
