Heh.  We run Scientific Linux (SL) on most of our servers.  SL is
logically equivalent to Centos, i.e., a distribution compiled from
Redhat source.  We used to run SL on our workstations too, and I was
happy with that.  But the end users weren't: we repeatedly got
complaints that they needed a later version of MySQL or PHP or ... than
was available in SL/RH/Centos.  And other packages, such as numpy or
scipy, for instance, were very difficult to build on SL but were just a
yum away with Fedora.

I thought that SL-on-server/Fedora-with-kickstart-on-workstation
approach was a reasonable compromise.
