Hi Gaurav,
How did you "waste" your time on Fedora? Developing? Improving
installer? Fixing Bugs?
It's all about innovation and choice. I saw the .vcf file attached to
your mail which had a comment "Innovation is not absolutely necessary,
but then neither is survival.". You can easily find people who do not
agree with this. I have been using linux since 1996 (started with
slackware and settled with Redhat/Fedora.)
Currently my PC's run on Mandrake and Fedora. Each distro has it's own
pros. I run Fedora on my a machine which is
firewall+http+smtp+imap+ftp(transfering files to/from my
office)+subversion(revision control system)+dhcp(for lan). It also
runs mythtv which is used for recording tv programs. I use this
machine for encoding recorded programs for burning DVD's. Occasinally
it serves as my development machine also (small linux utilities for
myself or friends). The Mandrake PC is the desk top PC. I find
Mandrake better for desktop and Fedora for server. There is another PC
which is infected with Windows but I have to use it because of Delphi
& .Net thingy which is part of my job.
We chose Fedora just like you choose to use Ubuntu.

Vijay Gill
