You should have realized that you can typically download and install beta versions of Windows from Microsoft, no doubt with the full expectations that things aren't going to be perfect. So it is with Fedora...it ain't perfect. Yes, this is the the place to discuss and contribute to the development of fedora and some feel it is an adequate forum to whine and gripe. I always refer to the notion that some people are content to curse the darkness and some light a candle and if there was a pack of matches in your hand with your first post on this topic, it was obscured by your whines which included: >I would have expected that SOMEWHERE that GNOME >Do we ALL have to become linux experts >I don't have TIME to read the RTFM's >I would *expect* linux to be a *PROFESSIONALLY* and I'm sorry but I don't give free passes to immature and misinformed people. I would suggest that the next time someone calls you out for a lack of perspective that you give more thought to the possibility that the person might have a point and that you would get more respect by admitting that your tone was indicative of your frustration and probably too severe rather than just tossing it off and telling them to get a grip. The choice however is of course, yours. Craig
