I have tried Ubuntu, but prefer Fedora Core 6. I use Revolution on FC6 all the time. I have tried Linspire waaay back, and was put off by the subscription fee for accessing the CNR service. Now that CNR will be free for ALL MAJOR DISTROS (not just Linspire and Ubuntu), I will most likely use it on my Fedora box. I choose Fedora over Ubuntu because you get more useful software immediately. I also prefer RPMs for installing software. What I dislike is that Fedora (Red Hat) has stripped out everything media related so they cannot be held responsible for any misuse of DRM protected media files. ---- <snip from http://www.cnr.com> ---- "Utilizing 5 years of CNR development in one-click software delivery, CNR.com will provide a standardized process for finding, evaluating, installing, and updating desktop software for the most popular Linux distributions, both Debian and RPM based."
