To Whom It May Concern:
Does Fedora configure all my hardware like my cd rw writer/dvd player, hp
2100c scanner, hp 3322 color inkjet printer,, video card, monitor, my
siemens 4100 dsl modem?
It should have no problem with your cd writer and dvd player. It sdhoudlnt'
have any problems with your printer. I doubt it will have problems with your
scanner, but I am less certain of that. Your monitor should be a non issue
(at worst it will ask you to select it from a list). It should auto detect
yor video card and allow you to configure it, it will however not beable to
make use of special features of your card , if any, like 3d acceleration,
this will require additioanl work on your part. What type of model and dsl
service is it: ethernet/usb , sdimple connect or pppoe.
Can Fedora detect my sbc dsl internet service? Can Fedora activate my
scanner? Since my printer has a cd to install my printer software,
can it be
compatible if I have the Crossover Office Standard 5.0?
Should, should and no. Your printer's cd will most likely be useless in
Fedora.
I have a Logitech Mouseware 9.41.1 trackball with the windows compatible cd
and I need to know if its compatible.
At the very least the basic functionality will work, and the extra
functionality should be confugrable. The cd is again useless.
If I saved my favorite websites on cd under windows xp, can I copy it and
paste it to Fedora & Fedora compatible web browser?
This question requires additional information: define save your website, and
what browser do you use in Windows?
Is it possible I can download Windows Media Player 10,
No need, there are many better replacements
Adobe reader,

Cyberlink PowerDVD 4.0,
no you can't wil have to choose from one of the players that come with
Fedora
System Mechanic,
This would be mostly useless in Fedora, but no
Complete Cleanup, Norton Goback 3.0, Norton Utilitie! s 2002, and McAfee

If I can't download these Windows programs using Crossover Office Standard

Yes it sure does, some may argue that there are too many
Does Fedora have a disk defragmentor program, anti virus program, anti

No defreagmentor as this is not needed, no antivirus, but you can download
one for free, but this is not needed. No spyware, period. It comes with a
simple firewall program which meets most needs. More complex firewall
programs can be downloaded and installed for free.
If a web page requires windows media player, is it possible I can play the

Yes, but you will have to follow a short tutorial to adding this to your
browser(s) once in Fedora.
If I go to
http://www.turbotaxfortheweb.com to file my taxes, will it work?

If you do not need to download any programs it should work just fine.
Can I copy my photos from my cd that I saved under windows xp and transfer

Yes quite easily. But better yet, you can setup a small drive that both
Windows and Linux cansee, with a little help.
If I can't transfer my photos to Fedora, does Fedora come with free programs

Yes
Please respond. Thanks.
