Well, I wasn't accusing you. It just seems that every time there is
a discussion of distribution, people are forgetting the fact that
the distributions aren't that different.

Well, if you want stability and security, having used both, I must say,
both are pretty much the same.  I still aren't convinced that Debian
is somehow more stable than Redhat.  Doesn't make sense.  Enlightenment
0.16.3 doesn't magically become more stable because you installed it on
Debian as opposed to Redhat.  Software doesn't work that way, sorry.

The main advantage of Debian is the package system.  Everything is 
dots over the i's.

And, btw, if you want convince somebody of your position, it helps to
have an open mind. Considering them illiterate sheep doesn't help
your situation. Iif they don't feel that you respect them, they
won't respect you. It's hard to convince someone on your position
when they don't respect you.
