There are very few things on CentOS that really need manual tweaking and 
setting up - and once they are done, it just works. And keeps working 
for many years.

Debian package management used to be good in the late 1990's. 
Unfortunately for debian, the world has moved on. If you still think 
that apt is the best there is on offer today, you really need to start 
looking at the options. You'll be well surprised by whats on offer.

yes, you can install LTS, and have it break every few months. LTS from 
Ubuntu is a sorry joke at their attempt to break into the business 
markets. Somethings that, even by their own admission, been mostly a 
failure.
