I found this statement suspect, at least, since Debian
has had SELinux in it for some time, and AIUI Ubuntu is
a Debian derivative. I looked, and Ubuntu has SELinux.

I got an employment contract, and the people I contracted
for wanted that I be able to boot WinXP and Fedora. So,
I have a machine which is dual boot WinXP and FC2.

On my own, I wouldn't have chosen Fedora.

Given that I have the machine, and it is dual boot WinXP/FC2,
it remains that way. When the time comes that I feel I really
must install something newer, it won't be Fedora.

In the meantime, I remain a Fedora User.
