I first installed slackware back in 1996 on a Pentium 60 and had to copy it onto 40 installation floppy disks. I briefly used Redhat at work and then bought Suse (now OpenSuse) in 2002 and have kept with that ever since. I originally bought that because I had heard that it just came with the most stuff.
I really don't like Ubuntu and had to use it at work once but I replaced it with OpenSuse when it messed up upgrading itself. I had a Debbian server once (it was a VPS) and that was so time consuming having to figure out how to configure everything on the command line even though I do all my programming on the command line and hate graphical IDEs.
I don't bother upgrading with OpenSuse, I just reinstall the operating system each time because my home drive is on a separate partition. Sometimes there can be bugs though. Like getting it to dual boot with my new computer with UEFI on a separate hard disk was rather difficult. I'm not looking forward to moving to the next version now.
