I found this topic very enlightening and am evaluating two of the mentioned
OSs as a result: CentOS and Whitebox.

I have been using RedHat and need to move on to another production quality
OS, but cannot afford the RedHat Enterprise support levels.

I am also looking at FreeBSD and Debian. I will evaluate all four and maybe
report back if there is interest?

I have run Fedora Core 1 and liked it, but the development cycle is too
short for me to justify this OS on a production machine. Excellent desktop
OS, however!

Cheers!
Glenn
