(Only if > you're not sure what you want and allow the defaults) My reluctance to recommend CentOS (despite still using it on two servers for legacy reasons) is that it is controlled by a small and closed group - at some point, while they were busy spinning 6.0 they left 5.x (5.2 or 5.3) without security updates for a few months! I was following their mailing lists, but the leader kept saying that people don't want to help with the "real work" and just want to get advance access to the bits for some other reason. From the outside, and as an end-user, it looked really bad and on its way out. I'm surprised they are still around.
