I don't mean to follow the trend started by KL about sharing our personal 
Fedora experiences, but I want to congratulate the developers for a great 
job. 

In my quest for finding a linux-based home security/surveillance 
solution, I discovered that the stock kernel included a driver for my 
logitech quickcam messenger (this is a first, to my knowledge). No more 
searching, patching and compilation necessary, just plug the camera into 
the usb port. 

I was also pleasantly surprised to find that ZoneMinder is available via 
yum and works out of the box. 

Last, but not least, I did one more flawless F7 installation directly 
from an iso image stored on the hard drive, using the grub/vmlinux trick. 
Maybe I was just lucky, or maybe I knew how to avoid the troublesome 
points, but I didn't seem to run into all the problems reported by many 
people on this list.

I could go on and on. Good job and keep up the good work!
