+1  LINUX has a variety of distributions ... because those distributions
have distinct target audiences.  Fedora is a distribution for
*developers*, hackers, etc...

And there is CentOS and others like Ubuntu LTS that are for slow change
long life-cycle.

I use openSUSE as I feel it rests somewhere in between, and it has a
Desktop rather than a Sever focus [which is a downside of something like
CentOS].

But you have to choose the correct tool for the job.  A screw driver may
work as a hammer, but not as well as a hammer will.

That distributions have target audiences seems to somehow be a meme that
just doesn't penetrate.  But is true and always has been.
