In their effort to support more recent hardware Ubuntu is maintaining
their own "LTS" kernels which is alright I suppose, but I prefer the
accepted stable kernel. That said, I'm used to apt-pinning on my Debian
systems so it hasn't bothered me.

I've come to like CentOS and now almost don't get ashamed to say it in
public places. The 7 release has been really nice for my needs, although
I still struggle with SELinux since I've not had time to devote to that.
