I've been using Linux since 1996 and admittedly have never really looked into it.
I normally use CentOS (or sometimes Debian) for server use and currently have Fedora on my work PC, ubuntu on my laptop and Mint on my home PC.
I've used Slackware back in the day more (usually swapped between slackware and red hat when new versions came out) and have no problem compiling programs (I know they have a package manager now) but lately have gotten used to rpm/yum and dpkg/apt because of the easy upgrade path.
What is Arch based off (if anything)?
Why would I like it better than CentOS as a server?
Why would I like it better than what I use as a desktop?
Does it have a package manager? (like rpm, dpkg.. yup or apt?)
There ya go - convert me!
