Dont know really. Following the ubuntu idea of a single, simple, fast,
rethinked live/install CD is wonderful (simple! read yourself below!).
Machines with CDroms got what they need. On the other hand, a full DVD
distro is still available for heavy installations. You do not need the
DVD, really. More packages, more updates. Perhaps you'll say a single CD
hasn't all the Fedora functionality a user needs. Yes. But it has about
90%. The other 10% are everyone's peculiar requirements. That's not a
reason to spread big dvd distros, making heavy installations, updating
never-used libraries. I see the ubuntu success on that. Its almost what
everyone needs. Grats to Fedora.

There you're right. But thats a Linux wide issue. Anyway, there are
still simpler distros like deli or dsl.

Have a nice weekend...
