Do not use fedora!!

fedora is a experiment of redhat. The company controls fedora, and makes sure the software is work well and then applied to their enterprise linux. They do not want to maintain the experiment, so that, the end of life is about one year. It imply when the problems are fixed, the experiment will be end, and their enterprise will get the most benefit. Fedora always uses the newest version of the software. When the software is not ready, the software is got in the release candidate of fedora and when the software is released, fedora is released. In this way, Enterprise linux can use neither too new version nor too old version software. Too new version imply many bugs are not found and fixed. Too old version imply nobody wants to use it or to upgrade it. redhat say fedora is a desktop version, and desktop version needs the newest version and so on. But, I think they are business words, and from the users' view, if I can not boot the linux due to the bugs, I will like more stable version than the fancy version.
