As a hairy (before the army:) Debian monk, and a beginning Debian
package maintainer, I'd suggest our thingie, because of some
reasons:

1. RedHat (FTPed from redhat.{com|org, whar was it}) didn't install
   on my system.
2. Debian, it seems, is upgraded faster.
3. I'd better use GPLed products than something ppl do for money,
   because money != fun, and fun usually means quality (because ppl
   like what they do).

Just my opinion.
