One would hope there is more room then that.

I don't know, but it certainly looks like I'll be find out.  Since I was 
happy with the service RH was providing at $60 @ year,  I was planning to 
stick to it and update my server from 7.3 to 9.1 (I got 9.0 and Severn 
running on other sytems) as EOL was coming up for support.  I'll probably 
upgrade to 9.0 an wait and see what to do prior to my subscription 
expiring for RHN.  

So when is the stable release of Fedora due out?
