preferred linux distro for workstation usage?

[Jerry Natowitz]

Don't everyone laugh at once, but after 15 years, I still can't break 
the Slackware habit at home.  The external slapt-get package gives you a 
semblance of a package manager, but Slackware remains a lone wolf.  It 
has a SunOS-like simplicity - everything in /etc/rc.d (it actually does 
setup a System V /etc/init.d tree - located under /etc/rc.d).

I also run Ubuntu, but feel I should really go to vanilla Debian, with a 
Centos system or two for comparison.
