Yeah, I hear you. Less than a year ago I had a distro shootout to
get rid of Plymouth laden Ubuntu, and now here I go again. I have books
to write and marketing to do, and I'm once again switching distros, and
now there's a Redhat led group who has somehow co-opted most of the
distros, making it even harder.

I'll let you know what I find out the next two weekends.
