Why is Debian special in that respect? I once worked at a place where we ran CentOS on our workstations, and the correseponding RHEL on servers, for exactly this reason.
- craigsmansion 8y agoI think Debian is so good in its multiple roles because it's used in all these roles by its various maintainers. I don't think there has ever been a Debian "server edition" or a "desktop edition", for example. I've always felt RH/Centos were a little less flexible when it came to desktop/laptop setups.
