IIRC, the customer versions will have the newest technologies and still 
be freely distributed as ISOs.  The enterprise products are just that, 
enterprise products, and will be sold with RHN subscriptions.  The new 
workstation release will pitched to commercial software developers and 
engineering firms as a good replacement for UNIX workstations, not as 
something you and I should run at home (unless you just want to).  I'm 
guessing the customer version will be a test bed/proving ground for 
stuff that will eventually find its way into the workstation & server 
products.
