I don't feel any loyality to _any_ distribution. I am not a religious man and 
certainly won't make any penguin my god :)

I've been changing distribution when I felt this or that one better suited my 
needs, or simply my computer. I've used Mandrake on one particular Toshiba 
because SuSE could not handle it at the time, I've installed Ubuntu because 
it worked better on my Thinkpad Edge and it is on my Netbook because it's the 
easiest way to install Trinity (and because my scanner does not work with the 
latest Debian). I've been a SuSE user for years but dropped it because they 
went KDE 4, and their implementation fo Gnome is not as good as that of 
Ubuntu. I've been using Mepis too but I probably won't be using teh next 
release because it's KDE 4.

So feel all free to change when you want. What's more, supposing such changes 
really bother the distro-makers, that's the user's only real way to say "I 
don't like your choice".
