| "Jackass IT stunt No. 1: Route city services through a laptop. Ever wonder whether you could route an entire city network through a laptop running Fedora? Take a seat. Or better yet, leave the chair for your laptop. You'll need to balance it somewhere to keep city services up and operational through a two-day snowstorm. | | "Fedora 14 KDE is well suited for experienced users who prefer the KDE desktop environment. The Fedora developers have done a good job blending Fedora’s tools and features with KDE. So there’s a lot of value here if you are a KDE user" |

| After a feverish half-hour configuring the switch and setting up 802.1q trunking and routing on a Dell Latitude running Fedora Linux, the city network was back up and running, with all traffic routing through a single interface on the laptop balanced on a chair in the data center."

| |
| | |
| "The truth is that there is a distro for everyone. If you want some of the latest technologies, especially in terms of underlying system code, virtual machines and other of-themoment tech, Fedora is a good bet. If you want to have a friendlier desktop experience where your every whim is catered for, Ubuntu would be better for your needs.
| |
| | |
| And, while we're on the subject, if you want to run KDE, you are probably better off with OpenSUSE. There are certainly more than enough Linuxes to go around."

| |
| | |
| "While some users may be turned off by the lack of easy-to-reach proprietary drivers/codecs and the barren default software selection, most will appreciate the true qualities of this distro:
| |
| | |
| * its focus on developing the community and trying to keep everyone active and contributing in some way or another;
| |
| * giving users access to the latest and greatest apps in the open source world;
| |
| * its commitment to freedom.
| |
| | |
| Surely, as always, there is room for improvement, but I found Laughlin to be the most stable and solid version of Fedora I've tried in years. "
