I've never been bothered by Debian's release cycle.  I run
Debian/Testing on my desktop with Debian/Stable on my servers.  If I
need a newer version of package on my stable servers, it's usually
available from backports.org.

I've run 'unstable' on my home machine for a few years now with no problems.

I recommend you try Debian, it's like Green Eggs and Ham.  You might
just find you'll like it, Sam-I-am! :)

(btw, there's always Fedora Linux, which is RedHat.)

Seeya,
Paul

	It may look like I'm just sitting here doing nothing,
   but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.
