Thanks for sharing such a nice article. It was so informative that I just formatted my Mac OS X 10.5.2 and installing Fedora 9 over it. The article was so manipulating! By the way this is the comment I have posted on that blog ... <blockquote style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;" class="gmail_quote">You gotta be kidding me! Why Ubuntu has to run for money? It is a free product :| All the features Fedora 9 included are already exist in other distros, so I couldn't find anything new. (I am using Ubuntu in flash drive for months). Can you explain why exactly Ubuntu has to run for money? The title seems interesting but totally lacks any sort of explanation. Canonical LTD. is dedicated to promote free software and is the official sponsor of Ubuntu. It is funded by Mark Shuttleworth, who is not a poor guy at all. Being a really nice distribution and having a HUGE community, I don't see any point of running out of money. May be you have some important points that I (we) don't know. Waiting for the reply.</blockquote><div> P.S. I didn't see a single point arguing that this or that is the reason that is why Ubuntu is the competitor of Fedora (which is the opposite in real), therefore may I know the reason of mailing this worthless article's link in a Ubuntu mailing list? Fedora 9 is released just few hours ago, and already people are claiming that Fedora 9 "Gives" Ubuntu a Run For Its Money.

Perhaps the best part of Fedora 9 is the new live USB options. After playing with the release candidate for a week or so I am happy to report that Fedora 9 has made some significant strides and gives Ubuntu a serious run for its money when it comes ot user-friendliness.
