Kevin,

   I use both Fedora 13 and Ubuntu on my laptops/desktop at home.  I 
like both of them.  Ubuntu is easier to use for some applications but I 
have been Red Hat fan since 5.2 so I tried Fedora 13 on an old desktop 
and it works great.  I had forgotten some of its advantges (both KDE and 
Gnome in a single distro) and the RPM for package management.
