Tons of features and customization that is out of this world.

The packages available is non-stop and the boot time is fast, along with performance.

I can't wait to try this installed on a laptop with a solid state hard drive.

I have it running on my eeepc. I used the madwifi drivers to get the wireless going. I installed XFCE to cut down on the overhead a little. Running Fedora 9 from the solid state eee drive responds quickly. It must be something about the architecture of the eeepc because it is snappier feeling than the Athlon 1.3 Gig Hz Fedora 8 box I have. The only slightly disappointing annoyance is the lack of Nvidia drivers since Fedora 9 uses Xorg 1.5. Fri, 23 May 2008 23:43:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (buff) Comments
