 ... so be it.  a distro can be one thing or the other, it can't try to be
 everything for everyone - a server, a "game OS" (which is what several
 linuxers use 'doze as), a corporate workstation etc etc.
 
 As nick hill pointed out, "distro"!= "linux" as well - so the newbies ('doze
 power users who want that little bit extra) can use Caldera and Mandrake (or
 maybe redhat).  They can then switch to slakware, debian or whatever (or maybe
 tweak their distro to the max extent they can)
