I've run redhat before (but not debian yet, downloading it tonight), so I
guess I have an opinion about this. :)
The reason I'm switching is the package dependencies I read about in the
Linux journal. redhat doesn't have these.
Also, it seems like I saw one announcement a week about security holes in
redhat for the last two months. (Most of them were in game packages that
most multiuser machines won't have, i.e. abuse, but still...)
