You can train a RedHat user on Debian in about about 10 minutes. Debian
is simple to administer, maintain and update even across multiple
hardware architectures (Intel / Sun / Apple etc etc). It is an
administrators dream as it is consistant, coherant and simply managed.
To deploy any other operating system is to create a logistical headache
for yourself down the track.

I highly recommend that for you and your clients sake, you take the
Debian road.
