Fedora is definitely not for everyone. It is a fast moving distribution
with a very limited support lifetime for any particular version. Upgrades
(between Fedora versions) could work better as well.
Limiting the packages to "Free" and unencumbered by patents software causes
some other problems, particularly related to playing media and high end
video cards.
