Next time download the fedora unity product they respin all the updates.

One of our IT people installed F7 and was shocked to see >500meg ofupdates. Though as he said, the same for Ubuntu.

For a home user this is a pain but no different than a clean install ofWindows. Of course you don't have to worry about getting hacked or avirus until you get the updates done.

I will have to look at the Fedora Unity for my install at the end of themonth. :)
