Fedora should simply provide said user with an easy to use tool. no matter how good you may think apt is, if it's not installed _by default_ and easy to use, it's useless to people who are coming from windows and trying out Fedora for the first time. it really amazes me that the Linux community seems to not want to make Linux as easy to use as possible to people coming from Windows. btw, i'm not a new linux user... i've been using linux for 4 years now, but trying to get people to switch to Linux is a bitch if a lot of the stuff they wanna do is not easily doable with tools that come with the distro _by default_
