Not that I have anything against either one of them. But that's not a good
reason to drop a distribution (like Suse at least). Suse has an outstanding
product. I never saw a faulty CD or DVD from them.

My reason for dropping them was largly because some developers Samba f.ex. (if
I recall correctly) will have easier integration into RH as they have had
very differnet ways of using config files. Thus causing more work to get
upgrades running. Now this may have changed, but I doubt it...
