It would appear that on May 10, Chee Kiong Ong did say: > Thanks alot David =) i juz didn't want to offend anyone here, coz i'm > really new to tis and hmm... guess i'll start with Fedora, which seems to > b a very popular choice. Well Chee, I'd like to add my 2 cents worth about why I think your making the right choice. And how it relates to your original question... Fedora Core is an excellent choice. Be aware that anyone from a windows only background will need to learn a LOT to adapt to any linux. But you have already found what makes Fedora a good choice. The people on this list. If you put any effort into the learning process, I'm confident that you will get LOTS of GOOD help here! And that is why I think that Fedora is the best linux... It's the people that make it that way. Speaking of help, I strongly recommend that you make one of the first things you do after installing Fedora is find out how to configure and use a package update manager. Fedora comes with yum, which is a text based one, (that is it runs in an xterm or console, which is something like a dos window on windows, only *much* more powerful.) but there are others. Fedora comes with more included software than windows. But there are even more available for download from some repositories like dag.wieers.com. Once you configure yum to use a good combination of repositories it can make installing and updating software almost painless. Do look into it! Good luck and have fun with it. -- | --- --- | Joe (theWordy) Philbrook <o> <o> | J(tWdy)P ^ | <<jtwdyp@xxxxxxxx>> /---\ "bla bla bla..." | \___/ "...and bla..."
