Both, actually. Debian stable works for me. RHEL works for my current employer. Being realist I have to accept that it's much easier to use a Linux distribution for *commercial purposes* if there's some price tag attached to it (or to the support of said distribution). An ablility to redirect responsibility to support is priceless. But for the non-commercial purposes and personal use RHEL is way too enterprisey for my taste. Too little software, too much 'do it our way' approach. Hence - Debian for my needs. Reco
