I think a lot of that is overblown. One of the more amusing bits of "social engineering" in the last month or so is how Red Hat has convinced a huge number of people to run "Rawhide" by calling it Fedora Core Test, and issuing updates through RHN. My guess is that this is the most widely tested release of "RHL" ever. :-) And know what? Precious little has been utterly and truly broken. In a few instances I've had to back out an update. I've had far fewer problems in updating my laptop daily than the guys in my office have had with Windows security updates. [Not to say that besting Windows is any great achievement.] So while there will be bugs and incompatibilities in any release, I'm feeling pretty confident that FC1 will be better than any previous ".0" release. Just one user's opinion ... Regards, Bill Rugolsky
