Fedora the right choice?

Hi George, 

First thing, do NOT hijack other people's thread! 
For users using threaded sorting like me, and trust me we are quite a few, 
your message appears right in the middle of someone else's thread.
It is good practice to start a new message and address it to the list.
You will make other users happy and won't get flamed for that ;-)

Cannot see any issues with that either

Are you used to the CLI, this is no tedious task you are contemplating

Your best bet is to read this list archive whenever you have a question, use
www.tldp.org
fedora.artoo.net
fedoranews.org etc
