There is a lot of truth to this. I have used Fedora once, where I simply could not get touch screens to work with Debian. Fedora just went in and worked at once, its more up to date.
Two things about beginners. If they are going to have stable usage, then Debian is fine, because what I learned is, they will find systems admin hard, but they will never do it. All your questions will be about the applications they are using. If you want to give them easy admin, there is nothing to beat the Mandriva derived control centres, which is what Mageia & PCLiinux give. But the thing is, for stablity, what you need is rolling release and occasional well tested major upgrades. That's Debian. There is a reason the Ubuntu derivatives are moviing to Debian based.
