Let's be realistic here, Linux for the masses (of mums) is just a plain
silly concept at the moment.
No, I don't think it is a silly concept. Fedora is -fantastic- for
"mums" mostly because you can tell yum to update things nightly, and the
software magically takes care of itself! And no virus worries!
However, the closed driver module / kernel update issue breaks that ease
of set-and-forget. Which sucks. So I don't use kernel modules anymore...
I have my dad on FC5. It works very well! (Sorry, no benchmarks to
characterize my claims...)
