Definitely.  I would prefer to have seen them go with Red Hat (if they
had to use a commercially backed distribution, anyway; I certainly
wouldn't want to use RPMs, myself) or Ubuntu or something.

Nonetheless, the GNU/Linux system is the GNU/Linux system, so the fact
that vendor lock-in doesn't really exist in this world is a good thing.
