The facts are the facts, and your ranting about it here on this list is not only unwelcome, it is to the wrong messenger. Take this BS to your congress-critters. ONLY they can fix it. This list can do without the

rant. There are workarounds that google, legal to do so or not, will lead you to. Use them.
I dont care if its unwelcome, I have been on this list since about day 2 or so of its inception, and there's one thing I know, theres too many rose coloured glasses wearing fan bois around here, many who love to attack those who dare have a difference of option to theirs or Fedoras/RHs. I've been dealing with that type for 15 plus years on other lists and newsgroups etc, I aint about to give in to these bully boys now just so they can sit in there little tinny, it's rarely calm waters in international oceans.
This was not my statement, my statement is recommending people who want to move from windows, the clueless bunnies who want a working GUI, they are the ones that I deal with and they are the ones I no longer recommend fedora to for this reason (they just want it to work).
I have only one fedora box left, its an FC1, and it'll be ubuntu or slackware soon depending on how F7 turns out, I moved all my other desktops to slackware recently (since I only use slackware on servers as of RH9 EOL).
