Back in September 2003, when Red Hat discontinued its home-oriented Red Hat Linux desktop and offloaded that market to the community-driven but Red Hat-sponsored Fedora Project, many people were left wondering if Red Hat would ever again offer a product aimed at home desktops. We have the answer now.

Don't block the others who try , shut up on the subject , "your it's not ready for personnal computers" or "History is littered with example efforts that have either failed outright, are stalled or are run as charities." when your not even trying is undermining those who are ready and doing the job.
Apple don't seem to be doing too badly on that segment this days ... Novell , Mandriva , Ubuntu , Xandros , Linspire , Etc ...
Also don't try and claim that you really tried ... a company worth 3 Billion plus ( that is almost 4 billion ) can do a lot more then what you did. You bought and paid for server and workstation products at the expense of the personnal desktop solution who was the one who started it all for Red Hat.
Fedora need to distance itself completely from Red Hat on this.
7 days from Ubuntu next release too , yes right , that's so not intentionnal as to not grab the press attention ... cynical here.
- Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.
