I very much disagree that it's 'on top'. Popular, perhaps, on top? I
know /many/ more people running Fedora than I do ubuntu of any flavor.
It /is/ a good desktop version. But I certainly wouldn't call it the
best distro out there.
But then, I've been in the linux world since slackware 3, so what do I know.
