Let's be clear: Bugbuntu is just for fans, it will not be used by a serious person. Come on, are you really recommending Ubuntu?

Gentoo is primarily for the ones who want to tinker th o.s in every way, so a great admin and and a smart programmer can tweak it to be reliable and secure, but on the wrong hands it could be volatile.The key to trouble-free operation is choosing the right tool and right engineer for the right job. I would love to throw the other distros into the ring but i dont want to write about every distro out there, but anywayz maybe i`ll write about those some time later. @fak3r

While I can be done, Gentoo is just so open I'd be afraid it would not stay on track enough for updates and configurations, some extra USE flags and who knows where you'll end up. For my .02 let me throw Debian GNU/Linux into the ring. It's supported by HP/Compaq - you can order a server 'naked' and install either Debian Etch or Lenny on it - on hp.com they even list what's certified to be working on those two choices - but with new versions of the kernel in Lenny, everything has worked that I've tried on the 1U I've deployed at work with Debian.
