Please reply privately to this newbie question: Why are you settling on Fedora versus, eg, Debian? It seems like they have similar goals, ie public cocmmunity etc. I had a good thing going with RH8, but I am having more trouble than expected getting to the same functionality with Fedora. I'm trying to decide whether to keep persisting and learning Fedora, or whether I might better switch to learning Debian. I understand the Debian way might have a steeper learning curve, but it seems it is very reliable and easy to use once you get the hang of doing it their way. What are the advantages of Fedora over Debian at this point for the "hobbyist" - email, websites, etc, eg not a "big business" user - RH wants them to use RHE anyway. Tnx - John
