Yes, on the list itself (earlier Tim and others helped me) and I
updated with the command:

yum update

after becoming root.

My friend suggested me for fedora bibble, but that's for fedora 10,
though i hope that it would be okay for at least basics.

its more more distributed than windows, i think and what i have heard.
so it becomes a good and better operating system than windows.
