I have seen a site with thousands of Debian installations migrating
away from Debian to CentOS because a new generation of server hardware
would have needed netboot images with built-in firmware. Management
considered the operation I did on the image to make it work "black
wizardry" and decided that they wouldnt want to do that every time an
operating system update is released and ordered migrated away from
Debian instead.
This still brings me in a state of mental turmoil between rage and
sadness.
