Yeah I like the idea of an "starter" distros for parents, but then rolling packages would probably be easier for when I need to do tech support

rolling distros are a bit of a pain from time to time, notably if you get a broken package, although i hear fedora is really good in terms of being updated, and also stable, so maybe that's the ticket. Personally i don't mind things being out of date, since most of the stuff i host is either externally installed, or stable enough its not going to get significant feature updates anyway.
