Unfortunately, I did choose to follow this path. The theory is sound
however, so far, installing Fedora 9 has been the worst mistake I have
ever made since I started using linux.
It just has too many "features" that would be more appropriate in a
bleeding edge nightly build distro. I had thought that Fedora was
supposed to be a balance between bleeding edge and functionally stable.
I guess I can say I am learning more about my system. Most of it I never
wanted to learn. Hopefully, it will be useful to know anyway.
