RHEL. NEETs on /g/ will disagree of course because they cannot afford it and will never work in a company that uses it.

I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

Gentoo.

None. They're all unique in their all way, use what works best for you.

None hit backspace 20 something times,
Bsd or plan9 or Gnu/Hurd.

I'm terribly sorry for interjecting another moment, but what I just told you is GNU/Linux is, in fact, just Linux, or as I've just now taken to calling it, Just Linux. Linux apparently does happen to be a whole operating system unto itself and comprises a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Most computer users who run the entire Linux system every day already realize it. Through a peculiar turn of events, I was misled into calling the system "GNU/Linux", and until now, I was unaware that it is basically the Linux system, developed by the Linux project.

There really isn't a GNU/Linux, and I really wasn't using it; it is an extraneous misrepresentation of the system that's being used. Linux is the operating system: the entire system made useful by its included corelibs, shell utilities, and other vital system components. The kernel is already an integral part of the Linux operating system, never confined useless by itself; it functions coherently within the context of the complete Linux operating system. Linux is never used in combination with GNU accessories: the whole system is basically Linux without any GNU added, or Just Linux. All the so-called "GNU/Linux" distributions are really distributions of Linux.

RHEL.

Why? Isn't it basically enterprise Fedora?
>>
>>54627243

4.7 RC1

>>54628553
Fedora is the testing ground for features to be implemented in Red Hat. Red Hat is stable-current and CentOS is stable-previous.
>>
None, You should only run POSIX certified Operating systems.
>>
>>54628595
>CentOS is stable-previous.
No.
>>
>>54628871
>No.
Yes.
>>
>Gentoo
Companies use RHEL for the same reason they use Windows or Ubuntu, it's user friendly.
>>
It will be Solus 2.0 come this december

Solus 1.1 is pretty alright so far

>>54628927
Sort of. RHEL is mostly preferred because they offer a support contract. Companies don't have time to fix kernel bugs.
