I have occasionally seen it said,
that Fedora should not be installed for
people, who have never come across Linux before.
I believe this to be an urban myth.
I have recently @Feb-March installed it to a laptop,
for someone who was exactly that, never heard of Linux.
He had a proprietry version of 2000 installed,
which was refusing to boot.
I suggested Fedora 10 to him, showed him my Laptop.
He was sold, has only called me once since.
How to copy photos over.

I did the same to my pal whom is not educated and not that aware of PC,
a lorry driver. He is good in navigating with the handphone thus
thinking he can try out computer <as in the way of handphone> but
realized he is lost in other OS windows environment and also poor man
like him cannot afford all expensive commercial licenses and etc. That
is where Fedora 10 + LXDE being introduced to him, an hour of
familiarize the UI with him, now he is happy and have no issue - he
comment that the "Add/Remove Software" is good, he just need that to
find software :-)
He is now telling his local pub friends, of Fedora Linux.
If you don't try, you will never know.
