Fedora has been very stable and of professional quality, for the most part. Especially when you put it side-by-side with something like Mandrake. That's my major quandry now. If (as someone pointed out in a previous post) it's true that there still is a reasonably priced and supported NON-ENTERPRISE OS you can buy from Red Hat, I might go for that. But then again, I've been spoiled by Gnome 2.4. Not sure I'd want to go back to Gnome 2.2, older versions of Evolution, etc. That's the tease of Fedora. It's very good and it includes the latest stable stuff. Preston
