There is only one Linux!!!
,----[ Quote ]
| When I say there is only one Linux you can imagine the groans and gasps of
| disagreement coming from every direction. In the software universe it is true
| there is only one Linux. This one Linux consist of volumes of source code
| that is compiled and configured to run on different platforms, then lumped
| together to form the various distributions. Don't blame me for the habit of
| naming every Linux formulation. But in a way it is like conquering a mountain
| and putting a flag on it. But you have to thank so many folk who have managed
| to do this feat, so you don't have to do it yourself. And it still doesn't
| take away your freedom and right to do this if you want to. The thing to
| realize is that a distro is the beginning, if you want to change it, you can.

Linux training
,----[ Quote ]
| The thing I was particularly impressed with is the uniformity and ease of
| service installs. Now I know that many of you are used to installing things
| like bind and dhcp and apache and sendmail/postfix, etc., what have you, on
| lots of other linux platforms, but there really seemed to be a uniformity to
| all this under RedHat, and the initial configurations or supplied config
| files seemed to be saner somehow. Most notably to me was the difference in
| ease of install for bind or sendmail between RHEL5x and any recent Ubuntu
| release. It could be that I had the training manual in hand, but it just
| seemed more ready to go and easier to change the config if you had to.

Distros Don’t Drive Development

| Lots of press and people focus on Linux distributions when they check out
| what happens in Linux land. This and that distro come in new releases and
| they offer this and that brand new feature. This is also true of the many
| linux podcasts. They give credit to distros for new things that pop up.
