Some big news here:
Fedora 17 uses Unified Filesystem
And Gnome-shell is the standard DE. Btrfs did not make its way into Fedora this time. Beefy Miracle needs 768 MB RAM but 1 Gig is reccomended.
The name is inspired by an installation that toke so long that they had time to make their way to the kitchen and make some food.
They even made a web page to explain it:
Image
Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.

Not interested after the netbook debacle I had with 16.
I'd rather be a free person who fears terrorists, than be a "safe" person who fears the government.
