Version 7 Linux

Red Hat's more "stable releases" product offerings had already split off from RHL prior to Fedora Core. E.g., Red Hat Linux Advanced Server. RHL ostensibly still was the desktop product, but then even Red Hat's desktop customers (based on my experience from Sun and who they had as desktop customers, that would have largely been banks, trading companies and EDA firms) found RHL too fast moving, given that Red Hat then also created a RHEL Workstation edition. The next release after RHL 9 was then FC 1.
