Yes, I thought about that, but I knew there would be more folks using
the above distros and wanted to be a little more granular on the choices
for those. I know they are all Debian offspring, but they are different
enough to get an individual listing. :-)

Cool, and an interesting mix there. Quite different. I was once a fan
of the Redhat heritage, even ran Redhat for a short while before it went
commercial, and then Mandrake after that (still RPM package management).
I guess I've never tried CentOS, but have installed Fedora a few times,
but found it too Gnome-focused. I actually liked Gnome back in the
early days with RH and Mandrake, but it's evolved into.... something I
don't like any more. Finally settled on Slackware (w/ XFCE desktop) and
been there ever since.

Haha, yes I have tried Gentoo also, LONG ago, and while fun for a while,
was too much work. Good way to learn about Linux, though.
Thanks for the feedback.
