Since I get different answers for each of these categories, depending on whose article I'm reading today, are any of these articles truly useful? Maybe not. But more importantly, why isn't Fedora chosen for any of these categories? Does the author disclose on what basis each distro was rated? Were some distros not considered? I have more questions than answers after reading the article, although at the same time, I'd be happy to see us more often mentioned in these articles. I'm thinking about changing distros on my main workstation for a week or so just to experience what other people think is a clear differentiation between them. -- Paul W.
