arctic Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 I have it already up and running on my laptop and so far it works very well. Pleasant colours, good behaviour, good response time and the Live-installer got better, too. Being a long-long-time Red Hat/Fedora user, I must admit that this release is way better than the previous two releases, which I found rather irritating. Seems as if the developers got back on the right track after making some weird decisions in the past years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Fedora devs will ***ALWAYS*** make weird decisions, simply because Fedora is really avantguard distro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's Adam Williamson's influence... ;) Edited June 11, 2009 by tux99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
