Wait a minute. Isn't Red Hat smoke and mirrors? Their market cap is $5.844 billion. What is their product? Hello.

Dave, you are partially right. RedHat doesn't have a really distinguish product to sell. You don't have to PAY for RedHat Linux, just download the installer and you can install RedHat Linux over the web, period.

What you have missed is that, they are selling services, not products -- whether this is worth a $5.844 billion market cap is, of course, another story.
