I have had opensuse 10.3 installed on my system for a while and for some reason i had messed it up beyond care for repair and hence i was waiting for the next release of opensuse to be released so that i can install it on my system.

Meanwhile, when i was at the toshiba service center to get my laptop serviced, i saw a customer use fedora 8 for his laptop OS. This got me interested and since fedora 9 just got released, i downloaded it and installed it on my laptop today.

Let me re-emphasize that i am the kind of guy who just likes to have the operating system "just work" rather than having to go to the command line to get each and every application working. I am not too much of a geek anymore and anyways dont have that kind of a time to deal with these things.Open suse and ubuntu to a certain extent fits my kind of customers really well.

Fedora linux does look nice and jazzy from the outside with all the cool and latest updated softwares. But IMHO, some of the latest software has made the whole distribution a bit hard to use.
