Sorry Wrong botton. 
   
  For support it is easyer to have one distro. and Yes I'm looking at Ubuntu, also because I have heard so much about it.  BUT the reallity is that I'm not a Systems Admin, I'm a Programmer, I dont have time to match wits with a hand full of distros.  having the same distros at the same version levels means that I can move compiled programs to nodes with out a problem.

another vote for centos - specifically because of the update cycle
for centos/rhel being many years longer than fedora.
