Agreed, the docs are among the best in the "business". And its excellent for
learning. However, once your done this once, there really is no need to
continue using it (nothing more to learn to be honest). Install deb/ubuntu.
Makes sense.

I also really like RHEL (WS) on a workstation, probably because in my business
this makes most sense for me. Also I am in regular contact with Redhat.

Wot-ev-er
