Honestly, I think we need to advertise more...Idk if this is a common problem, but almost all the people I talk to have never even heard of anything but Ubuntu and just thought Fedora was something Indiana Jones wore. (possibly just because were high school kids and haven't had time to look around). I'm not talking $80 and $118 dollar bags, but a mouse pad maybe? Or maybe not. I just know that almost no one I know thinks of Fedora when they hear the word Linux. If people know we are here, then maybe they will take a look at us and do there own comparison, and see themselves what we have over Ubuntu.<br>

lol:p<br><br>how i see it, it would be wrong to put fedora and ubuntu as enemies.... they're both linux, but they are different distributions, for different people... to me ubuntu looks boring is just doesn't feel right...<br>
I think you should read some more about the sub-projects and stuff so you'll be able to introduce fedora to the right people...<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 27, 2009 at 5:29 PM, Emilio Simpkins <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:unidentified221@gmail.com" target="_blank">unidentified221@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
