The following explanation is based NOT on what the authors of the distribution
intend but on who the users are.

Red Flag = PRC National Government Distribution
Red Hat = Corporate America
SuSE = Corporate Germany
Mandrake = Beginner Hackers
Debian = Midlevel Hackers
Gento = Advanced Hackers
Making Your Own = Expert Hacker

There are about 100 or so more each with theirs own specialty.
