Subject: Re: RedHat for home lab PHP development
Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but my imprssion is that Ubuntu is mainly for desktop use, while CentOS is used by a vast number of commercial hosting companies for their hosting machines.

Also, CentOS is basically a pre-configured Red Hat distro, while Ubuntu is GUI-oriented Debian distro.
