[Russ Demarest]

Without about Debian? It is the best distro I have ever used, and I 
have played with most of the major ones.  The install can be a 
challenge (at first) but once installed, forget about it. Apt-Get 
rocks.

If you want a commercial entity behind it check out Xandros, although I 
think it is aimed at the desktop.

Gentoo is nice but as far as production seems a bear to keep updated. 
There is probably a way around this but spending hours or days to 
update a server seems a bit much,
