[ubuntu-us-ma] The linux distribution Fedora?

[Conner Finlay]

I currently have Fedora 10 on my laptop and soon to be Fedora 11.In my
opinion Fedora is a great distro for everyone, and can be used on
laptops, desktops, and servers alike. On my laptop
everything(including wifi) worked right out of the box for me, in
addition I have never had an issue with yum.

If you are planning on putting Fedora on a server though, I would
prefer CentOS. I prefer the Red Hat based distros because most
businesses, if they have Linux servers tend to be Red Hat based. As a
student entering the workforce in a few years I need a job, so I
figured I should be well versed in Fedora/CentOS. Although if you want
a good fun challenge, installed Open/FreeBSD on your server :p
