Journal stefanlasiewski's Journal: No more RedHat Network leeching for me 2

Guess I missed a change in the contract somewhere. I only bought RH7.2 15 months ago.

Dear Red Hat Network User,

We hope that you are enjoying your complimentary demo account with Red Hat
Network. This email is being sent to you to because you have only 7 days left
in your Red Hat Network demo account. Attached below is a link for filling out
a survey in order to extend your demo account for 60 days, as well as a link to
purchase a Red Hat Network subscription and receive a year of uninterrupted
service.

Please note that your completion of the survey is how Red Hat verifies the
activity of your account. It is Red Hat's policy to disable inactive demo
accounts to ensure the best possible level of service to active demo users.

Thanks for your support of Red Hat and the Linux community.
--the Red Hat Network Team

Why buy Red Hat Network Basic Services?

    - INSTANT ACCESS to Red Hat ISOs as soon as they become available. This
        means no more long downloads from ftp sites, driving to the store, or
        waiting for your friends to finish with their copy.

    - Priority bandwidth during heavy traffic periods. As a Basic Subscriber,
        your access to errata and ISOs will be put first, ensuring that your
        systems are kept up to date and always secure.

    - 24 Hour Access. Demo Accounts are subject to blackouts during periods of
        high usage. Paid subscribers receive uninterrupted service all year.

    - Manage multiple systems from a single user login and password, and a
        single email account.

    - Be the first to get new Red Hat Network functionality as Red Hat expands
        the Red Hat Network platform.

    - Receive optional promotions, surveys and discounts for other Red Hat
        products and services.

No more RedHat Network leeching for me

  • You might consider Debian [debian.org] or, for a cleaner system (and IMO the nicest package system in the universe) but a slightly more involved install process (you can, if you wish, install everything on your system from source), good ol' fashioned Gentoo [gentoo.org], nectar of champions! ;-)

With your bare hands?!?
