On the other hand, CentOS systems tend to last much longer due to the 10-year support cycle. So I often encounter wild specimens that are even older than Debian oldstable.

Right now, I've got a bunch of CentOS 6 servers with 2.6.32 kernels that are freshly out of support this month. I was hoping to replace them with 8, but now I'll probably have to settle for 7. At least I can take consolation in the fact that I haven't been called in to troubleshoot any CentOS 5 servers lately.
