The opinions from the list were about evenly divided, so I burned DVDs of both and flipped a coin which came up 7.
So far I don’t see what all the complaints are about. Installation was a little different. systemctl is a little different. Ethernet port names are a little different. Not the end of the world. I may actually like systemctl better. What I still can’t wrap my head around is selinux. I am a bad person, I disable it.

I'm building a couple new servers, if my others are running CentOS 6 and do what I need, should I resist the temptation to jump to 7? I think CentOS 6 EOS dates are 2017 for full updates and 2020 for maintenance updates? I know some people will say switch to Ubuntu or Debian or whatever, let's assume I am staying with CentOS, I'm just asking 6 or 7?
