OK, I'll try to turn it off.

Master of Reality:
your much too nice, i was simply going to accept it.

Does Fedora come with an rpm apt-get program? That would really make it easy to install any applications you want to put on. It is easy enough to install rpm apt-get afterwards though.

.... by the way... apt-get will download the RPM (program package for Fedora/redhat) and install it for you. Its quite handy.

What distribution does actually include apt-get or something simular?
It takes away the pain that most newcomers to Linux have when it comes to installing programs.
