#32I need reliability, with a bias on using source code to produce my running binaries.
Of course, I run NetBSD.

Same here. Easy to admin and stable.

#37Ubuntu 6.06 LTS 64-bit. It is beyond me why so many people use non-LTS release of Ubuntu on their production servers .
To get up to date packages?

#39FreeBSD. (Ok, not a linux distribution, but it's an alternative to using a linux distribution.)
I would like to hear more about why you use it. I used to use FreeBSD for everything, but it's my understanding that the once significant differences in performance and stability between Linux and BSD no longer amount to anything. I switched to Gentoo (can not give up source builds!) two years ago.
It typically has less to do with performance or stability than with ease of use. While Linux is piling on features, BSD focuses on clean design and quality of code and documentation. Linux is "do it now," BSD is "do it right."

#40CentOS 4.4. (I'd upgrade to 5, but it's a huge pain on SliceHost at the moment.)
