Ok, so your hardware platforms are changing constantly? This makes things different. With a free Linux distribution you're always at risk that support for security updates will end some day. Usually, it should not be that hard to patch server systems manually (assisted by some sort of automation). My recommendation in this case: Debian.

It's not that we want the hardware to change as we always buy the same boards where possible, however we find that hardware revisions can change several times a year and often we're forced to buy newer boards. Not a fan of Debian as it's under developed took loads of munching to get it to install on our current boxes, which is why we were looking at Ubuntu. Matthew
