Jimmy,
         A fellow Newbie here, but I think I've picked up the correct answers to
your questions:
         Fedora Core 2 (FC2) is the latest 'stable' release, meaning intended to
be used fully.
         Fedora Core 3 Test 2 (FC3T2) is the latest release for testing (similar
to a beta, a release prior to the full release)
         As a side note, I'm sticking with FC1 until FC3 comes out, mainly
because of a variety of issues with the FC2 release. (most of them probably
wouldn't affect me, but its a perception thing)
         I was going over the specs of FC2 a while ago, and in FC2 the maximum
size of the RAM that can be accessed is 4 GB, with an additional 4 GB of swap
partition (to quote a mac term, Virtual Ram or the linux version of the Windows
temporary files)
         Correct me if I'm wrong folks!
         cya, Joey
