Give FC a shot...it certainly cannot hurt.  Simple is hard to hurt 
really...you tend to get into the recompiling and things like that when you 
start to go fancy.....like RAID cards   grumble grumble grumble....my 
personal cross to bear right now...  You also can see issues when you're 
using brand new hardware for which Linux drivers may not exist.  If you're 
dealing with older stuff...there's a good chance that drivers are readily 
available.

Give it a shot....you may just surprise yourself...
