Mint is kind of nice. I also have a machine running Ubuntu 13.04 and another running Cent OS6. Production servers running either RHEL or NetBSD.

Cent seems the most “functional” for some of the bashing around I do. Ubuntu’s insistence upon Unity is still aggravating.

Fedora is kind of pretty, but doesn’t seem to have the straight up functionality that Cent has.

If it weren’t for Unity, I may have still been using Ubuntu.. Been using Mint KDE since.

How wonderful (and in this context, surprising!) to read someone's comments, whose experience and opinions are almost identical to my own!

My production servers run NetBSD and CentOS ("free" RHEL), and Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS for those that need it.
Don't like Unity.
Used Fedora for years in the early 2000's but switched to CentOS for solid stability.

Tonight I'm FReeping on a MacBook and working on a Win7Pro laptop, VPN'ed into my Linux/Unix server LAN at the office, with a slew of SSh/xterms running backups. With dump(8), may God have mercy on my soul. LOL!

Carry on, Good Sir!
