First of all, I should mention that because windows does it or $distro does
it, doesn't mean it's the right thing to do. Rather, it means it's just
another way of doing it.
Secondly, I should highly agree with Paul Frields here because until I didn't
get involved in Fedora, I had no idea what a great community it has. And now,
I admit that I value the community much much more than the operating system
itself, and sadly, I didn't realize that until very recently.
