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.

Easy installation is really not that difficult...

If you have inadvertently installed Linux over your Microsoft Windows installation, it is usually very easy to re-install Windows. What you basically do is you put the installation CD-ROM to the CD-drive and a screen pops up saying that it is going to wipe your hard disk clean and install Windows, and it asks your permission to proceed. Then the installation program auto-detects your hardware and once it's finished it dumps you into a desktop that is ready to run out of the box. This is the kind of installation procedure that I think Linux should also have. RedHat/Fedora could really learn something from Microsoft considering the ease of installation.
