Meanwhile you can use RHEL or CentOS and basically leave the thing alone for 5 years.
- monsieurbanana 7y agoIn corporate environments I probably wouldn't recommend Arch for corporate environments, but at this point I feel I should point out I wouldn't recommend Linux either if you're working in a windows shop.
- mratsim 7y agoRHEL and CentOS are not targeting the same users as Arch. Distros targeting the same desktop needs are Ubuntu, Mint, Debian-flavors, Fedora, Gentoo, ... In corporate environment for critical software you would get a contract with an on-call duty and you would only have a limited choice fo supported distros.
- celticmusic 7y agoabsolutely, but the problem is that when I pointed out that arch is less stable than these other distro's, I had people trying to defend that claim. There is no defending it, it's a fact of life. You get bleeding edge at the cost of stability.
