Beneficial talk RedHat vs Debian...

[Warren Raquel]

The only difference between Server and Workstation are the packages it 
installs. If you want the exact list just hop on the CD and look at 
RedHat/base/comps. Look for the Workstation Group and compare it to the 
Server Group. I agree, go custom. I just use a kickstart script to install 
my servers with the packages I want. Done in 10 minutes. Love it.
