OSNews Rates Fedora Core 1 Mild Disappointment

Posted by simoniker on from the slightly-crumpled dept.

JigSaw writes "OSNews has reviewed the Fedora Core 1 Linux distro, but the author personally found lots of usability problems and bugs with the distro, making Fedora Core a trying experience. The writer puts the blame on poor QA of Fedora Core 1 done by its community, since Red Hat has shifted focus to Enterprise, with Fedora serving merely as a testbed for them."

  1. Expected Outcome by nurb432 · · Score: 1, Troll

    Desktop linux is now unimportant to Redhat, so we should expect any efforts from them in that market to be dismal, at best.

    They have moved on from their customer base, so its time for us to move on to something else that has a longer term future on the desktop, be it Debian, Slackware, even *BSD..

    ( just sort of suprised it happened THIS fast.. )
