The main difference is that FC1 runs under kernel 2.4 and FC2 runs under
kernel 2.6.

So if you have some hardware which needs proprietary binary drivers, and
the manufacturer does not support kernel 2.6, you need FC1.

Otherwise: FC2 recognizes more hardware, and all apps (including Gnome
and KDE) run with higher version numbers.

FC1 has reached it's "End of Life". It is supported by
www.fedoralegacy.org, not by the Fedora crew.

If you do not need kernel 2.4, FC2 is definitely the better choice,
because it is a more advanced OS.
