Let's stop the distro wars right here.
The strenght of Open Source is that there is a multiplicity of
alternmatives, and you can always take the code and fork your own
version.
So Linux is stronger in having multiple choices of distro - ranging
from embedded distros, throug cut down distros using ulic and busybox,
up through desktop-oriented distros to server distros.
I personally am getting really sick and tired about the knee-jerk
"Debian good" "Ubuntu - its the only choice really" attitude on this
list.
