Yes, iiNet use RedHat, and a large number of "pros" use RedHat, but a
large number of "pros" use Debian too, so that's not a valid argument.
Read the archives of the last week's worth of linux-kernel, and look for
the thread "New Linux distribution - PSL" and you will see many respected
kernel hackers and sysadmins promote Debian.

P.S. Let's just drop this thread here.. we're not going to get anywhere
because it's all just personal preference, and we're not going to
convince each other that their distribution is better.. The only way to
find out, is to find out for yourself, by running each distribution for a
few weeks and seeing if you like it.
