Mike, I admire your patience! (you mean I can't get Fedora for XXX? :-)

Very good! It is a pity that the natural tendency is to drop the "Fedora"
part and keep the "Core". Hence "AlphaCore" and above. Idealy it should
be more like "Fedora Core Alpha/Fedora Core Power" etc. Personally I run 
RedHat on a Mac and am waiiting for 
    "Apple Core" 
but for the IA64 may I add my suggection of,
    "Core Blimey"
(for non-English speakers it is British slang)
