Gentle People:
My suggestion: Use Fedora 14 and immediately load all updates. Results from my testing: Fedora 17 x64 - Not usable way to many bugs. Fedora 17 x32 - Barely usable, not ready for prime time! I am staying with Fedora 14! I would suggest that the Fedora Group stop all work on new versions
and exclusively focus on debugging Fedora 17!
You are free to suggest whatever you want.
I am also free to point out that I feel your suggestion to be misguided and based on your singular experience for which you provide *no* specifics.
On this particular system whose hardware has remained unchanged, except for the video card (RIP), I've run F14-32, F15-32, F16-32, F17-64, and now F18-64. I moved to F18 during the pre-release phase when my video card died. Except for a problem with nouveau, for which I've filed a bugzilla, I've no major problems.
I should also point out that if the situation were as dire as you suggest this list would be swapped with people seeking help. You'll notice that isn't the case.
