Hi,

Thank you for your help

This page is my main reference but I was looking for something a title
diferent, like a table with the comparative.

In the link that Paul suggested you can see, for example:

Ram RHEL5 - 1TB
Ram RHEL6 - 16 TB.

something like that.

After reading some articles I think the big effort RH has made with RHEL6 is
scalabilty.

Virtualization is good, but with RHEL 5.5 I can use kvm and I think is
enough for me (at this moment, of course)

Any other point to take in account?

Thanks again,

ESG
