Most of my linux users use Ubuntu rather than Fedora at home.

Several years ago I looked at switching from RH/SL to debian
and the hugh difference in init scripts was a large part

If those sort of games are going to happen I'll be starting
my choice between SL7 and something else without an SL bias.
