I never implied that they weren't deserving of respect - they just don't receive it (and neither do most people in systems/network engineering/administration from what I see either)
Or, you could ask before making assumptions. C# is decent (especially compared to Java). SQL Server is an example of a product that sucks up too much resources (like Oracle, or Windows). I'll leave IIS alone - it beats itself up.
Fedora by default sets up the Firewall (IPtables) to block everything other then SSH and NFS4 IIRC. The daemons can be a mess - I know I don't need Bluetooth services on any of my systems. Fortunately disabling services is simple.
I haven't seen any issues with Fedora installing on Generic boxes. Been using since Red Hat 6.1 on all kinds of systems (I know Fedora dropped support for i585, but, how many people want to run Fedora on a Pentium?)

Now they're just another cost center. .
No, we (IT) has been viewed as a cost center since the 90s. And sometimes as glorified janitors...
I'll have to check that out.
Actually they originally only provided a deb file (Debian and Ubuntu). The RPM is a newer addition to the releases. Also available as source code.
Flash works fine in chrome for me under Linux. Although not working would almost be like ad-block.
I think that many religions would site religious texts as evidence of prior art on that one.
Guess you should thank Red Hat and Feodra for that WiFi manager, they wrote it afterall....

Funny how all that always worked for me in Red Hat Linux (I started on RH6.1), years before Ubuntu (ok, I didn't have the last 2).
Which is why I have AfterStep on my Fedora setup.
Gov. Palin was also quite aware of that if you actually heard what she said.
Because Mr. Obama was more qualified then Gov. Palin, right?
I don't think I'd try the Windows fish for sushi. (Clever all the OS fish in one tank)
I have found Avira's Antivir UNIX to work quite nicely, although I do not have the paid for version (nor do I use it commercially).
Symantec does not provide CD's cooperate anti-virus
Which is why we have anti-virus and such on Linux as well. A healthy dose of paranoia...
I'll take that and raise you a Dual Pentium MMX 200 w/ 512MB PC-33. POST takes forever.
Because, you know, the African people were the only ones that were treated badly. (See Native Americans)

Dayjob - Windows System and Network Admin...
Can you provide a better alternative for 2 and 3?

Why wouldn't people still use Fedora?
1 - Did you enable Legacy Device Support in your BIOS?
2 - Did you try the text install option?
