If you could not/did not use Debian (either Lenny, Squeeze, or Sid),
which other distribution would you use and why?
Since I don't use debian for everything and it depends what I'm doing, I
can't really answer that. For firewalls, load balancers, routers (where
I'm not using Cisco et al) I use OpenBSD. Some webservers and such like
are also OpenBSD. Desktop is a mix of debian and windows, I use windows
for games as not all games work under wine etc plus you get better
performance using latest nvidia drivers and windows nativly, in general
(Linux plays games alot better recently, admittedly, but when you want
max settings and max FPS, I just find it doesn't cut it for me).
Linux is good for high memory systems and where you need SMP which
OpenBSD doesn't do well. But essentially, I believe OpenBSD is a lot
better for more things
FreeBSD has ZFS support so that's always around and I think ZFS is
pretty good!!!
