The distros are more alike than they are different, as both drink from the same well. The differences are cultural and "value add". And those differences are either "better" or "worse" depending on your perspective on any given day and who you are talking to. The distros are sufficiently mature that who added the mainframe to their definition of "enterprise" first is now irrelevant.
