Fedora is an open source linux distribution sponsered by Red Hat enterprise. Fedora is the test bed for Red Hat enterprise Linux. Fedora is great distribution but with introduction with gnome 3 many have left it. The latest release is !7 codenamed '' Beefy Miracle" . Lets move around it and see how it behaves this time.
The installation process is like breeze with ease with anaconda installer. The default desktop wallpaper is blue bankground with fireworks. The gnome 3.4 is absolutely silky smooth to use and is absolutely rock solid. Although fedora has now become geeky with addition of JBoss 7, D-progamming language, open stack cloud, GCC 4.7 etc etc. One of the most important change that fedora brings with this release is getting rid of the separation of /bin and /usr/bin, as well as /sbin and /usr/sbin, /lib and /usr/lib, and /lib64 and /usr/lib64. All files from the directories in / will be merged into their respective counterparts in /usr, and symlinks for the old directories will be created instead.'' although solaris has done this 15 years back and most people will not even recognise it.
Hence recommended audience for fedora are those who wants to live bleeding edge and try new technologies. Fedora download
