Fedora Core Fedora Test 3, is, most certainly, as the name says, a test. In my experience there are a few problems and a few bugs that would keep me from recommending it as an everyday desktop replacement, but nonetheless, Fedora is an Operating System (distro) worth watching out.

Any unbiased recommendation of course ;-)

I generally speaking suggest that anyone who wants hardcore performance and is running *NIX, they're better of grabbing a copy of Accelerate-X and Summit. XFree86 is suitable for most people but for those who want the extra "oomff", they're better off with a commercial X server and drivers.

Even if you download a freebie Linux distro and install the commercial X server, it is still going to work out cheaper than buying Windows, and in some cases (according to xigs benchmarks) will perform better.
