I can't say much about your hate for Gnome, or love for KDE, since I still haven't try them (not sure if Puppy is classified as KDE) as I'm having a hard time understanding them. Are they Window Managers? If they are, then I'm using JWM, not KDE or Gnome. The newest Puppy features a choice between JWM and IceWM. Not sure what the difference is though, JWM is the default. If you want to know how things went with Fedora, you have to wait until Fedora 11 is released in May, don't want to repeat my mistake with Puppy.

So you're saying "Get the current release as it'll have loads of patches ready and most bugs fixed". I know where you're coming from but I'll still wait for fedora 11 to be released before getting it. The main reason is that I want to see if it's possible to get it via fedora's free media program. Also, regarding system stability, I don't mind playing with an unstable Linux as I used to do it for quite some time with Windows.

All going well now. It was my fault in a way that things went badly due to transfering all my Thunderbird info over including all plugins and addons. There was some conflict and I resolved it by reloading and only putting back the emails. So its going well and its a joy to work with. At least its not Gnome!!
