Been using Mandrake, Mandriva and Mageia for servers, approx. since 2001. So 
far, had no reason to move to any other distro (except for prejudiced admins 
against a "desktop" / RPM distros).

On a recent incident, I had to move some service from a RHEL6 server to a 
humble Mga1 box, in order to gain in performance (rh did use older, less 
efficient versions). In a similar tone, vanilla Debian couldn't install there 
(because of the firmware for its NIC).
