+All purpose means no one knows what the distro wants to do.
+
+Making a specific version for education/small business or whatever
+
+won't makes the distro seems only focus on one thing, but a proof of
+
+full feature OS.
+
+The point is: you have to emphasis something different, not something
+
+others also owns/easily achieved/already well-implemented/advertised.
+
+I don't agree with the way ubuntu flushing the whole board of different
+
+purpose but actually same thing strategy, but it does makes people knows
+
+what to choose to fit their need, which is important to makes people
+
+accept your product.
+
+We do have to find a place in the market slice, or no one would care
+
+about who you are. All-purpose is great, but not for people who is  
+unfamiliar
+
+to our distro:
+
+It's too vague and not attractive since no one knows your strength.
