Better question... why would you even WANT to complain? I don't get it
either. CentOS provides a rebuild of RHEL which is precisely what I want
right now. If people don't like the choices Red Hat makes, there's
always SuSE. But me personally? I find that the best distributions are
the ones (like CentOS or Ubuntu) where certain choices have been made
and they stick with them. Usually these choices are well thought-out. If
you want the jack of all trades distro SuSE or FreeBSD even are options
where you can install anything you want and few assumptions are made for
you. That's part of why we have hundreds of distros. Don't like CentOS,
go try one that makes LILO a priority...

ugh...
