    All the changes you can make to Fedora and the annual new issue and 
that it is not developed to replace Windows. I know .deb has new issues 
but not as fast. And they made a version that is very easy to load. You 
NEVER need a terminal, it is all point and click.

    Ubuntu has a large and growing number of users. When it comes on 
Dell the user base will become really large. They may need to start a 
Ubuntu list :-)
