I have a SUSE box that has virtually nothing installed by default. You think Fedora's installation is sparse? I was amazed at the total lack of packages installed in SUSE. Really, it's a total joke to work on that server. It has KDE /and/ GNOME installed (on a /server/ no less) and yet I had to install the sysstat packages along with ntpd and about 3 or 4 others just to make the server really manageable. The SUSE install is just silly. The Fedora installer is at least more /sane/ than most other installers I've seen or used. But it seems rather childish to switch distros just for that.
