I respectfully disagree. Ubuntu Desktop Edition is definitely (as is
obvious) for desktops. But the server edition is very much a server
distribution. Lean and mean with no cruft. The clean lines of debian with
the friendliness of Ubuntu.

That being said, I agree with others here that the best distro for you is
the distro you know the best. I know some on the list are using CentOS quite
happily and it is, I'm told, very comfortable for the redhatters.
