    Whenever I read that an Open Source package has been "released", I think, "Wasn't it already Free?"

    could it be next week because I'm thinking these guys are a bit too slow. I'd like them to move the pace up a bit that way I really don't have time to get used to their distro before the next comes out.

    You need service pack 4, that's your problem.

    I don't believe that either "stabler" or "securer" are words.

    Hmm, in my case they're using me to test both. Shame bugzilla reports on FC get ignored. As for quality control, Fedora seems to bypass the concept - FC2 sucks worse than any distro I've ever used, and I've been running everything on RH since the 4.2 days. If FC3 doesn't improve things I'll ... bitch some more on Slashdot.

    Sure they are words . . .

    I stabled the horse. Therefore I was the stabler of the horse.

    I secured the stable. Therefore I was the securer of the stable.

    Or thereabouts anyway. If in doubt - make words up. It's more fun. Just as long as you spell them properly.

    when most of the time more or less of all [linux distributions|women] look the same,if they are all [customized|dressed|undressed] the same.

    Yeah, no idea why people like looking at pictures.

    Your statement is interesting from a psychological view point as any Intro to Psych student could tell you. Anyway your probably oppressing something that happened to you as a child, maybe your father touched you or took pictures of you that you would like to forget about. Anyway... you most likely are the homosexual simply because you are randomly accusing others of being one, your trying to make yourself feel better about your homesexual tendencies and justify it to yourself. Regardless, your ignorance is shown in your response by the fact that BitTorrent would very well be just as good at mirroring screenshots as well. I don't believe I ever specified ISO's. But then again you seem to be so distressed, which is seen through your excessive use of unnecessary and violent language, that any logic probably wouldn't make sense to you. Anyway... Say it with me, "Rick and Roll was touched by his father as a child, and when he's not crying to himself, he's taking out his anger on the world."
