Parent article: 10 things to consider when choosing a Linux distribution (TechRepublic)

Considering that this was posted on lwn, which usually doesn't link to just any Linux related
article I expect a halfwau decent article. This isn't its a completely unbalanced uninformed
article even including some old fashioned fuuuud about some distro's the author appearantly
doesn't like.

Hint to other lwn subscribers: not worth the read!

Question to Jake: why link to this from lwn?

I thought his list of things to look at before choosing a distribution was useful.  I
certainly didn't agree with all of his opinions either, but I did think there was food for
thought there.

It would appear that some disagree :)
