Give me debian/ubuntu over redhat anyday - but one thing worth noting is 
that RHEL does have much longer lifetimes (of support) over even debian so 
if you want a server to go in and work until the hardware is dead, RHEL 
makes that realistic without a major OS upgrade cycle - which can be 
attractive to some people.
