Fedora 13 gives off plain vibe, but offers power and stability under the hood
The differences between Linux distributions these days are often so minute, there seems little reason to even review them anymore.
After all, one distro running GNOME 2.30 or KDE 4.4 is going to look very much like any other distro running the same interfaces. The interfaces will be nearly identical -- all that remains different are underlying administration tools and a few variant choices on the apps that are included.
That was the conundrum recently faced when turning to review the latest beta of Fedora 13: it looked so much like other GNOME 2.30-interfaced distros I have seen lately, the initial thought was "what's the diff?"
Such an attitude is, for the most part, not fair to the developers of the Fedora Project, who have put together a darn fine distribution that reads as rock-solid and very user-friendly.
