[Web4lib] Linux Flavor?

[Cloutman, David]

We're using Ubuntu on our Linux, though I'd be happy with any of the
Debian flavors mostly because I like the apt package manager better than
the alternatives. I have a SUSE machine at home that works fine. For the
most part, since I do my work from the command like, they're all pretty
much the same to me. If you're using the GUI, you might find the
differences more noticeable.

The only Linux that I actively dislike is Red Hat, and that is largely
because of an issue that I had years ago that has probably been resolved
by now. Still, it seemed like it was too hard to track down, and I like
working on an OS that is closer to the standard.

Hello,

I'm considering which distribution of Linux to put on a new web server.
I'm looking at CentOS, Ubuntu, and Debian.  Recommendations?  Thanks!
