dear mangesh ,the new fedora 10 will fulfill your all needs and also
the worry about the drivers are the problems of old days. even fedora
9 can make hp or compaq lap
drivers uptodate so in my view as i am also a local vendor of dell n
hp . so go for it....

                                  regards
