Actually, thats not the main reason for using CentOS. Fedora is bleeding edge Red Hat, CentOS is stable Red Hat. People use CentOS when the want something stable. <rant>What you're saying is the same as saying that all distros are leeching off the Linux kernel, because they don't have the balls to walk up to their boss and say that they should build an OS from scratch.

I'm glad you have a clue what Linux, the GPL, and the spirit to which they adhere are all about. > Disclaimer: > This is my personal opinion, bla bla bla Yes, an obviously well informed one at that.
