Speaking of Centos (www.centos.org), how do you like it?

There were many copies of it at the ASU IF, and no one seemed to know
anything about it. I should have gone online to find out. It appears to
be an unbranded version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (Red Hat being the
"Prominent North American Enterprise Linux Vendor"). I'm guessing that
it's best used as a server, and less desirable as a workstation. Yes?
