When I upgraded (installed fresh) Fedora Core 4 I
immediately noticed that my teeth were whiter, my abs
were tighter and more sexy, and my party bashes had
great-looking beer-commercial women at them.
Seriously, this release has given me about half the
problems that "3" did. Of course I know a lot more now
than I did then and that could have something to do with
it. I would advise sticking with it and working out the
problems. You will gain a TON of (marketable) knowledge
in a really short amount of time.
