But in all reality, value added features such as support and automatic updates aside, is there really a mainstream flavor of Linux that is "better" or "worse" for running Asterisk (or other apps for that matter)? I have had equal luck with all that I have played with (but not heavy load tested). I am bringing up several Fedora Core 7 boxen into production now. Besides a knee jerk reaction that "Fedora Sucks", can someone give a real argument as to why I should or should not use it for production? (besides the several MB of yum updates daily, which to me is a good thing). Besides naming a flavor and saying "It is the best", can someone add a few statements as to why, which will obviously have to compare the other flavors.
