I tried Fedora Core 1 when it first came out, and wasn't happy with the
quality compared to Redhat 9.  So I tried SuSE and found I liked it even
better than the old Redhat releases.  I haven't tried FC2 or FC3beta so
I don't know how they compare.  SuSE take a little getting used to,
coming from Redhat, but that's no big deal IMO.
