You have the choice, so choose the right one. There are many 
situations where Debian and Debian-based distributions make a lot of 
sense. Seeing as you don't say why it's "not as good as it's cracked 
up to be"(?) then it looks a lot like FUD.

This probably isn't the right list for DistroWars though.
