I REALLY don't what to start a flame war : ) but I'd like to know why
people would want to do this. I've looked briefly at Debian and it seems
quite attractive, but I'm using RH at the moment and it works pretty
well, so if it ain't broke...
I'd be interested to hear comments from people with experience of both
