Kiryl,
I take exception with this not because of the fact that I am not experiencing the same problems as you (with the exception of USB), but because you did not read the disclaimer.
Redhat and Fedora projects make this point really clear, Fedora is bleeding edge. While it can be used in production, you can, and probably should, expect a few issues. The list of issues with vary with your hardware. Once Fedora Core 3 is fully stable, it will become RHEL4 and Fedora Core 4 will be out.
This is not a secret, it is right on the Fedora website. If you are complaining about stability, you are using the wrong product.
Now that being said, I find Fedora, with a few nagging issues, to be far less trouble, far most stable, far easier to manage, and far easier to find support for, than just about any other Linux distro I have ever used. But I read the disclaimer, and I expect problems at any time. I also know that I can post a message here, and find a solution, or at least a work around, faster than I can get Microsoft Technical support on the line (sometimes you don't get what you paid for, lol).
