Not surprising, I was just balancing Michael's comment about his hat
of being a Debian developer. ;-)

The LPI exam requires a relatively broad basic understanding of Linux
in it's many flavors. Though I have been "brought up", so to speak, on
Debian, and specifically Debian's child Ubuntu, the LPI exam won't let
me get away with claiming a familiarity with "Linux" unless I
demonstrate a solid basic understanding of how to work with Red Hat
and it's children as well.
