SuSe and FC 2

As a one time SUSE user myself, I can say that I like certain things
about it.  So far, Fedora seems nice.  I bought a book called the Red
Hat, Fedora Linux 2 Bible.  It's large and in charge.  I've been
thinking about using Linux on older hardware, which xfce4 will give me
the ability to do.  KDE would not, so I'm investigating this.  Update
your RPMs off of Dag or Livna, get the mp3 support rolling and switch
all the way over.

One word of advice.  Copy your entire /etc directory and keep it.  Don't
use it wholesale, but in a few places, YasT is better than the Red HAt
tools.  You might be able to save yourself some frustration by having a
working config file.
