At this I can only say that you don't know my Boss!  He moved into this 
field from a related field (Telcomm) and knows just enough to be dangerous!

To him EOL would be a selling point because it would eliminate changes!  
Yes I am dealing with that kind of knowledge base!

As I have said in other posts the intent is to eventually wind-up on 
RHEL.  I have held my Home servers on F14 just for the reason of no 
changes although if the test F18 goes about one more week I will upgrade 
to F18 as the first release since F14 that my environment has not had 
some problem with!
