Well, 

I do not think the fancy gui is what these people need in RH. It is avoiding
having to deal with distro spesific quirks and loose some time and money
becuase they would have to look into something "new". This was what several
told us. Finally we did find a company that took on the task even though it was
their first Debian install. Afterwards they called us and told "It will not be
the last!"

Why is it that one of the few times where "the best in life is free" that so
few is able to see it? ;)

Our web server runs like a dream btw....and noone misses RH or Caldera...(yet:)
