I am new to CentOS. Have been running it on a test machine for about 3 weeks now. And I already like it, so poured lot of love on the ranking site. Look, Ma, CentOS is on top of the world.
Honestly, I had never heard of the name CentOS until March this year when I also learned about the little city Tuttle.... The fact that the person behind the project is so patient made me feel this is the distro to use. Having used RedHat/Fedora for many years, I found myself quite comfortable on the first day I installed CentOS.
Glad I found you, CentOS.

The "love" seems to have worked. CentOS is now listed as #1. :)

I think the "Tuttle" incident was a big boost for CentOS as far as media attention. Maybe CentOS should send him a thank you card. Never mind, he might call the F.B.I. ;-)

All campaigns like this do is show how worthless user-driven rankings are.

Probably ... however, if we are going to have a "worthless user-driven rating" at a public site, I would rather it be higher and have a large number of CentOS user votes then be low with other distro's users voting on it.
