Fedora shares developers with a lot of projects. I personally don't like what has become of GDM - I use KDM in its place. Actually, the "dumbed down" appearance and configuration of GNOME is why I don't use GNOME in a lot of situations (KDE, AfterStep, CLI).
Explains why Red Hat is contributing so much code to upstream projects? And that Red Hat wrote a lot of tools that Ubuntu fell in love with (Network Manager, for example)?
Menu bars are a waist of space - they should appear on the 'ALT' key being pressed or something of the sort. I personally don't use them - keyboard shortcuts are far faster.
I never said that I do not run AV on Windows or Linux. I run it on both. I have not rebuild either my Windows install or my Linux install since I purchased my current desktop in 2008 (but have upgraded from Fedora 7 -> 12 and Vista -> 7). In that time, I have failed to see any infections on either install. My previous desktop was a similar situation. The last wipe-reload was an upgrade to XP Pro in 2006, at which point I switched to Gentoo out of convenience.
Seeing how the I don't play many games anymore, it allows me to run Linux most of the time. For most of the games I play (Starcraft, Diablo, Thief), WINE handles them excellently.
Aside from two games that I do need Windows for (both are on Steam, and WINE doesn't perform well enough like you said), I have any programs that I use that do not have Linux versions or equivalents.
As an aside, I am happy for you that your bicycle works well. Since work is 40 miles from home, my Blazer and Saturn get sufficient gas milage (21MPG and 32, respectively) to keep me happy.

Well, they're not cool. But a lot of people like them.
OpenJDK, Plymouth, and DRI2 are probably better examples. (Especially DRI2). And YUM + presto beats apt-get any day.

Guess Network Manager, Pulse Audio, and several other similar tools are not cool either.
I use it when I'm under Debian.
GDM Configurator was dropped by GNOME, not Fedora.
Actually that goes back to Fedora 8 IIRC. It wasn't enabled by default until 12.
I don't know why it shouldn't be able to. Make sure the NFS versions match (NFS3, NFS4)
You are indeed correct. I would imagine that the max HDD size for Win98 to handle would then rely on what the HW can handle.
Win98 could handle partitions (Fat32) up to 2.1TB. Never tried it myself though.
Windows 98 using Fat32 is limited to 2.1TB. Sorry to inform you of that.
Well, that's how we did it in college.
Ubuntu just added (poorly it seems like sometimes) Red Hat's tools (Network Manager). And somehow made me like Linux a lot less.
And Debian is a lot more active than RHAT?

You realize the two are neither comparable nor exclusive?
Keyboard shortcuts anyone?
I'd love to have a Quad G5 to replace my 800MHz G4.
Menu bars are a waist of space - they should appear on the 'ALT' key being pressed or something of the sort. I personally don't use them - keyboard shortcuts are far faster.
I was afraid someone might take you seriously.
And your point is? Ubuntu certainly slow and I have a lot of issues with it. So I use what works for me.
I remember that. And IIRC that was a deb. packaged theme too (not beating on Debian/Ubuntu, just commenting).
But Linux does run AV programs (Avira, Symantec)

Still reading because I'm running Linux?
I should have been more specific. It seems to apply to PC's purchased with Ubuntu preinstalled on them.
