Couldn't stop myself from trying the new Fedora 2-test1 release, even if it is an alpha! The 2.6 kernel, KDE 3.2 and Gnome 2.5 all in the same release was just to much candy to turn away from; too bad it's more sour rather than sweet at this (beta) point than I would have expected.

I'm sorry these goofs who keep saying oh the user can deal with this and deal with that and so on and so forth...
It would be issue for Fedora to include proprietary software, perhaps someone could have a site that explains verbosely for the end user how to 'deal with it'.
The point is to make things easier for the user. What new user even knows what a JRE is, knows where to get it and what file they need to put in the $MOZILLA_HOME/plugins/ dir (for example)?
You have got to be really ignorant if you cant face the fact that many of these newer users have problems doing this. That is why people run windows because it just works (until it crashes, is compromised, breaks ...)
Redhat Strips gnome, Lindows strips debian, these are very functional based distributions. If you dont like it run Gentoo or Slackware or something... stop complaining you are wasting bandwidth and CPU cycles.
