Hello,
On a machine with only 1 Go of RAM, which version of fedora would you recommand?
Thank.

On my work machine, which is more than fast enough to run GNOME Shell, I have switched to XFCE and I am much happier with it.

Depends what you're trying to do with it. What are you trying to do?
Also, and really regardless of the answer to the above: is it possible to add more RAM? Might be worth it.

I run a vast number of virtual machines for testing and they all have 1 gig of ram defined. I haven't had any problems installing any versions of fedora, opensuse, and ubuntu on them.
They are kinda slow if you use the GUI login, but how much of that is the virtual video interface and how much the lack of ram I don't know. Most of the testing we do is with the GUI login disabled (i.e. runlevel 3 or whatever the equivalent happens to be in the brave new world of systemd :-).

+1 for the Xfce spin. It's been chugging along for me since Fedora 18.
