An anonymous reader writes "Linuxlookup.com staff member Rich Hughes posted his thoughts on the latest Fedora release with this Core 2 Review. "Fedora Core 2 is the newest release from The Distro Formerly Known As RedHat. Updates include the 2.6 kernel, KDE 3.2, Gnome 2.6, X.org replacing Xfree86 and numerous package updates. Having played around with SuSE 9.1, Arch .6 and Slackware 9 with the 2.6 kernel, I was interested in seeing how the Fedora team did with this release.""

  The article is about Red Hat, this poster points out that they have misspelt the company name.

Just wanted to announce for those of you out of the loop that revered actor/funnyman/little person Billy Barty is no longer with us. Millions of adoring fans will remember his landmark entertainment work in such Kroft Superstars TV shows as "Sigmund and the Sea Monsters" and "Dr. Shrinker."
He will be sorely missed. No matter what you think about the caliber of midget acting you can't deny Billy Barty's impact on modern day entertainment.
Truly a vertically challenged icon.

if they bombed a wedding celebration and only bagged 40, then either that was a small party (no stragglers?) or someone's aim is piss-poor
