If you do, then Fedora is doing exactly what it should be doing, and a few inconveniences are an acceptable price to pay for maintaining your political and philosophical opinion. If you don't -- if all you want is an operating system that doesn't cost you anything and operates as efficiently as possible -- then, yeah, I suppose it must sound counter-productive. But, in that case, your priorities are greatly out of line with Fedora's. -- Bruce Byfield 604-421-7177 Burnaby, BC, Canada web: http://members.axion.net/~bbyfield blog: http://brucebyfield.wordpress.com/
