Ubuntu LTS has a 3 year life cycle overall for desktops, 5 year for servers. > Okay, but my meaning to say was that it has an end of life every six months. Ubuntu and Fedora have a new release approx every 6 months but their end of life is 18 months. (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS and http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LifeCycle#End_of_Life_.28EOL.29) I personally would recommend Ubuntu LTS for family members.
