Hi,
I think Fedora has an image problem, especially with starting users. On
my Linux-forum, Fedora is often called a distribution for testing
things, not for serious desktop-use. As a Fedora-supporter, I'm always
trying to contradict... but there should be nothing to contradict.
As a solution, I think we should focus more on new Linux-users. Currently, there are not really things that attract new users.
Fedora is easy to use, imho it is easier then Ubuntu. I think all
popular distributions (Fedora, SuSE, Ubuntu, Mandriva, etc.) are ready
for the desktop, but the usage statistics heavily depend on the
community. Almost every reviewer is excited about Ubuntu. If that
reviewer started with Fedora, maybe (s)he should be even more excited
about Fedora.
