>From a business perspective, including support options, professional
development, training options, business and support indemnity...  SuSE,
Mandrake, RedHat, and similar companies are more mature products
*regardless* of the quality of the Debian system.  (which is on par with and
even exceeds the rest).  However, wen you're talking business, It's hard to
convince an IT manager of that fact.

He's probably looking to broaden his horizons and explore packaging systems
that aren't rpm based.  Also, I fail to see how Debian is any less mature
than redhat, mandrake, and fedora.
