Red Hat announced a partnership with Intel, which is very long overdue on both parts. As an Intel-authorized reseller and a Red Hat Ready (RH authorized) company, we're positively chomping at the bit for something similar to Microsoft's pre-install kit.
Hopefully, this partnership will ease the RH licensing process and automate much (if not all) of the RH desktop load process, including driver configs and selection/loading of add-on software.
Also, I'm looking for Red Hat to improve its compatibility. Say what you will about both distros, but Ubuntu just seems to fire up, recognize devices and work better out of the box than Red Hat. I've been saying for a good year now that Red Hat has the coordination and the channel-friendliness, but Ubuntu has the ease-of-use. Hopefully this is RH's attempt to fulfill the best of both worlds . . .
