[Cialug] Fedora?

[Daniel Wittenberg]

I personally think it depends on what the use is.  I like Fedora for desktops because it has more of the latest toys and apps, but for servers RHEL or CentOS is my choice.

My only issue with Fedora is the shorter life cycle.
I'm lazy and don't like to install/upgrade that often.

I prefer versions with a longer cycle so I can upgrade
at my leisure.  I prefer CentOS for Redhat style, but
lately I'm uslng openSuSE and SLES.
