Actually, I think the Oracle support cost is a LOT less than Red Hat,
which is why they got a lot of initial traction with this Linux
offering.  I think there was some option that was only $99 a year, but I
don't remember the details.

Running Grid Control on OEL 4 update 4(64 bit) for over a year without
issue.  Only time we've had to shut it down was when they redid the
power in the data center.  As noted, it's RedHat with the Oracle logo.
I think the biggest question might be related to the support one gets
from Oracle vs. RedHat. I believe the Oracle support price is a little
less than RedHat's.
