There are many other linux distros and some of them are likely to be aimed at doing exactly what you want.  I would ask in 
http://www.linuxquestions.org
and also look up distros in 
http://distrowatch.com
perhaps even navigate to their "Readers Comments" page and ask in there.  This week the regular Readers seem to be having a few stupid arguments again so they clearly need some good questions to focus on ;)  I think it's appreciated when they get a question like this to really try to help with ;)

I would suspect that Redhat or CentOs might be good ones to look into but i could easily be wrong
http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=centos

If you are looking to install kiosk machines to report to a central
point then many distros have been used for this but mostly they seem to
have some cheap little machine (perhaps even one rescued from a rubbish
dump) hidden inside the kiosk and running some very tiny & fast distro.
I know someone who is planning to take his old laptop out of it's case
so he can cool it better and use it for something like this ;)

Please let us know how it's going :)
Thanks, good luck and regards from
Tom :)
