I run it as my personal workstation, and (what will be) my new home
mail/web/ftp server, and am running it at work as DNS/SAMBA/log
collector/ftp/whatever else I can make it do. :-)

That answer your question? <G>

Much easier install than regular Debian, and they have a pretty nice
utility called "adminmenu" to ease some admin functions.

Sometimes TOO much - they have scripts for kernel compiling, and nVidia
driver installation, and those are just 2 of the things that I
(personally) like to do by hand.
