I think you all missed their point about wanting an install that has a
longer lifespan. They're jumping ship from Debian, and avoiding Red Hat
derived distros, because they all change versions too often, and abandon
prior releases too quickly for them.  I understand how they feel.

that must be why RHEL/CentOS has a lifespan of 10 years

Yes, CentOS, et cetera, have long life span versions, too.  But I
haven't compared the length of theirs to the long term Ubuntu one.

they also did not

otherwise they would not write bullshit like they are happy
about 5 years support while Redhat has 10 years and a
extended support of 13 years

no idea why people who can't use Google all the time spread FUD

if you already came from a Debian background, Ubuntu is a closer move
than a Red Hat styled release.

which has *nothing* to do with "the darker side of the Internet"
it's a matter of expierience and qualification

There are a lot of people who don't want "experience and qualifications," they want to use the computer. I really find Mint is the ideal OS for them, rather than Fedora.
