News to me? But If it's a problem I'll stop. (I usually prefer top posting
but I'll go with the flow)

This isn't the way I hoped the thread would go but oh

As much as we keep talking about the differences, the reality is (for me at
least) that there really aren't that many big differences:

Basically you're looking at .deb distros, .rpm distros, or source distros.
Beyond that it's all about the distro philosophy, the relative "speed" of
the project's distribution cycle, community/third party support and what it
is you're looking for in a distribution.

Anybody else feel the same? (or differently?)
