FC9 seems to have thrown us back to the bad old days of FC3 and 4, where 
hardly anything worked quite right. Its pretty irritating after 6, 7, 
and 8 which just worked for most of us. I think they pushed a few too 
many things to the bleeding edge on this one.

Firefox has some slowdowns, but thunderbird is much worse. It just goes 
completely to sleep for substantial periods. Some machines can't work 
with the updated kernels, as X either won't start of acts weird. This 
machine is Ok with the -18 kernel RPM, but its matrox card acts crazy 
with the -30 and -55 updates.
