I first started dabbling with Linux about three years ago. The way I
ended up using Fedora was it was the first link I clicked on that worked
(I think it was FC3). Since that time, I have around fifteen machines
running it. All of them run FC8 except my laptop which, as of yesterday,
is running the beta of FC9.
With that said, I have never seen any other version of Linux running
except Fedora. What’s all the hype around Ubuntu? I realize I could
download an install a copy but I never really saw any reason to since
FCx seems to work great.
I’m not trying to start a battle of which is better…just trying to get
an idea of why its seems so popular.
Usability is a priority for them and they have a budget to make some
improvements. But, they haven't been through a really hard upgrade
transition (like a major kernel number) yet so it's hard to make a long
term comparison as to whether it is really easier to keep things running.
