What bugs me is needing to be physically in front of the machine
(with boot floppy in hand) to do an upgrade.
I have many Redhat systems sitting in client's offices, working as
webservers, email, bind, etc. It's a real pain to drive out there to do
an upgrade. Many of these machines have T1 connectivity--I should be able
to do a full upgrade remotely.
It would only be worse for a Beowulf cluster or web server farm.
For that reason alone, I think I am going to start using Debian.
