I am also thinking of checking out SUSE. But Centos may be more what I need
for a mostly untouched firewall and email support machine. I've been
thinking about it for some time now. I simply have been too busy with
an April deadline for a major project to even consider modifying the
support infrastructure I work with.

(I figure I've cut 10,000 (give or take a lot) lines of code in the last
three months. And I have another 1000 to 3000 to write by the end of the
month. It gets exhausting quickly. At least it is paying fairly well for
working from home.)
