I think it is probably a good idea to try out lots of distributions, even if your rationale for doing so isn't sound. At one time, installing Linux was a learning experience, but nowadays it generally takes less effort than a Windows install. Even so, the process of customizing it to suit your tastes and installing auxillary packages is still very valuable administrative practice... eventually you will become proficient enough to just install the packages that you want, instead of changing an entire distribution for want of a single program. just my 2cp
