[TriLUG] Linux Distribution for server Opinions

I like Ubuntu because it is so easy to use. They do have a server
version. I prefer the graphical user interface because the command line
gives me flashbacks reminiscent of assembly language programming.
Patching process requires no entitlements or activation noise.

But, what the #%@$ does *that* have to do with BBQ sauce?

Ubuntu may be primarily a desktop oriented distro but Debian is a
server.
