Very correct opinion.

In the past, I'd be inclined to suggest the same as what I'm
using, as
I'm familiar with it. But, these days, knowing that I'll be called upon
endlessly for help, I only tell people that I use Fedora, but they may
be happier with Ubuntu. And I can't help them with Ubuntu, because I
don't use it.
I tend to agree with the other comment about them having similar
problems, but with a longer-life product, your resolution will probably
have a longer life span, too.
Honest opinion.
