I have a desktop running a geforce2 1600x1200 running fc3t1, even
hacked up the livna nvidia srpm to compile on it... I saw far less
smoke coming from my moniter than i expected.

card readers.... yeah... until I got the latest round of updates i was
having some particularly
interesting gnome issues with my usb mountable storage devices. Which
seems to have magically gone away since the last round of development
updates.

I'm using the fc3t1 box at home now as my primary machine for normal
home desktop tasks, I'm actually seriously disappointed as how few
annoyances i see doing my normal stuff.
