When it comes to a "standard distro", I pick Debian just because it seems
that they haven't mucked around too much.  other distros (not to mention
any names, Suse and Slack) seem to move things into weird places that no
one else thinks they should go.

Anwyay, that's my opinion, salt to taste, your mileage may vary.
