Telco switches to Ubuntu from RHEL for one reason...

[Kristian Hermansen]

An interesting observation that many Ubuntu users share?  I know this
is why I switched to Ubuntu from my previous installations of Red Hat
/ Fedora / Mandrake / SuSE / Gentoo and numerous others.  By far,
Gentoo was the best distro I ever used hands down in terms of control
given to the end-user and easy of software installations (if it didn't
break on build)...

"[The telco] said the reasons for moving from the pay-for Red Hat to
the zero-cost Ubuntu was not so much about the price, as Locatrix
still runs a bit of Red Hat for front-end workloads, but was more
about Ubuntu's ability to install new software seamlessly."
