Billion dollar companies spend money to buy Red Hat Enterprise Linux licenses, because promising 100% binary compatibility with RHEL isn't as good as being RHEL. If CentOS is even an option, Scientific Linux should be as well.
I work for a billion dollar company that uses CentOS because RHEL's licensing is too expensive.
How do you get support? Are these mission-critical systems?
