Ahem. That last point is the SOLE reason I just spent money on the
Redhat 5.2 boxed set, when I already *had* downloaded and installed 5.2
from a mirror.
It turns out that Redhat quietly dropped BRU when they went from 5.1 to
5.2. Redhat 5.0 and 5.1 included it - Redhat 5.2 does not.
I have written to every public Email address published at Redhat, and
have not gotten a peep out of them about the subject. Basically, if
Redhat has any kind of money back policy (I don't know that they do), I
want to take advantage of it... I would have preferred to have saved my
$50 and applied that towards BRU2000 Personal edition ($89 direct from
Estinc).
