Fedora Core 4 -- Personal Observations

<< < (4/7) > >>

MarathoN:
Funny that, because every Fedora Core release I have used (up to 4) has been absolutely horrible, one of the slowest distros I have EVER used, second to Linspire actually :rolleyes:

worker201:
Gosh, I have used Fedora since version 1, and it has always been good to me.  It's not exactly OSX, but it is still pretty good.  SuSE I didn't like because it was so heavily dependent on KDE - I like Gnome better.  In fact, FC distros are all about Gnome, so they do it a bit better than anybody else.  I use Slackware on my ftp server, because it can run securely for years without me ever logging in, but it doesn't have any of the handy graphical system management tools that Fedora has.  I've been incredibly pleased with the Fedora project, and I use it as my primary OS at the office.

Of course your mileage may vary - all distros are somewhat different, and I've been using Fedora so long that it feels like normal to me, and KDE seems foreign and ridiculous.  Difft strokes, they say.

Aloone_Jonez:
I agree with MarathoN here, Fedora has always been slow for me too.

MarathoN:
Well, the reason why I love Slackware so much, is because it's quite a manual distro, everything you want to do you can do yourself, so it's quite an "independent" distro in that instance.

But that's why I don't really like Gentoo, it's too manual for my liking. :P

:nothappy: NO NO NO !!! Nothing is worse than Linspire except M$ Window$ ... I disagree, I've tried Linspire and it sucks ass, it wouldn't even recognize my modem, I was going to buy a new fucking modem for a piece of shit distro called Linspire. Fedora reconized my modem instantly, I didn't even need to do anything. Linspire sucks, Fedora is far better than Linspire. :nothappy: It's not slow on my computer, Linspire was like twice as slow to boot, and Mandrake was in-between.

Speed rating by me: (these are the 3 distros that actually installed on my computer without major issues)

Fedora > Mandriva > Linspire
