Like hell. Anything beyond the most basic tasks on a server (and even the most basic tasks, sometimes) requires configuration, and often that configuration ranges between "nonintuitive" and "actively spiteful." If a service crashes and the pid file doesn't get handled properly, you've got to go in there and fix it. And god forbid you have to touch SELinux for anything. "Just works." I want what you're smoking.
