that there might actually be some misrepresentation of others based upon
what i have read in this thread.... or the other... i deleted all my
messages and had to cut and past the subject from the online archive...
sorry.
ummmmm it is Fedora Core and not Fedora Linux right?
or am i missing something?
im trying to understand..... does Red Hat have a license to say "Linux" and
CentOS does not so that Red Hat can say Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Red Hat
Linux X.x and CentOS is just a distribution that has linux in it or???
i know i am somewhat confused. anyone?

CentOS does not have Linux (R) in it's name (because we don't have
permission to use that Trademark in our name, and since it costs $5000
we won't be adding to our name anytime soon) and CentOS is not in any
way affiliated with Fedora Core, The Fedora Project, or Red Hat (R),
Inc.
CentOS does not contain Red Hat (R) Linux (R), Red Hat (R) Enterprise
Linux (R) or Fedora Core.
CentOS is built from publicly available open source SRPMS.
Hopefully that clears up any questions anyone might have.
