Well, there's Fedora Legacy (http://www.fedoralegacy.org/) if they can
get/keep their act together.

Have been some problems with FC2 on some laptops, for that matter FC1
and RH9/RHx.y, so it depends...  Back it up and try FC2.  If that
doesn't work give FC1 or RH9 a shot.

If stability is really important to you, and depending on the depth of
your pockets, there's RHEL, Red Hat Professional Workstation
(http://www.redhat.com/software/workstation/), or one of the RHEL
rebuilds/derivatives like WBEL (http://www.whiteboxlinux.org/),
cAos/CentOS (http://caosity.org/), or Tao Linux (http://taolinux.org/).
Beyond that, of course, we get into all-the-others - and I'm already
probably out-of-bounds for fedora-list, so won't get into religious
issues. ;^)

Good luck,
Phil
