What's the "best" breakfast cereal? There's a wide variety of textures;
some have more fiber; some have more sugar; some you've known since you
were a kid, and some new ones are all the rage. As with most things,
it's a matter of taste.

As for syntax, that's not much of an issue. Despite cosmetic differences,
most distros use the Linux kernel, GNU libc, and bash. There are some
differences, like administration tools and config file arrangements.
Is that the kind of thing you mean?
