This is a very good point. If you are being cheap, stick with redhat 7.2, then if you run into a bug you can quickly flip to AS w/o any major problems. If you understand redhat linux, you'll be able to grab the delta packages and (most importantly/99.9% of the difference) the AS kernel and be all set.

I believe that you'll end up needing the libaio package from AS for rh72, anyhow.
