I seriously doubt that you would have experienced many differences with
scientificlinux.
Well, there would have been one big difference in my case.
It is not on the list of approved OS's for my Dell server,
so I could not have used it in place of CentOS even if I wanted to.
The only OS's listed, IIRC, are CentOS and Windows Server.
I tried Windows XP and Fedora, but neither were accepted.
