My wife is not with the install and I have to think of her. My daughter installed F12 herself on a new laptop. My wife was running FC7 until I re-installed to F12 but moving to 12 I would rather she be able to use a rolling update. My desktop is still F11 due to time needed to upgrade is not happening. I have seen our IT staff upgrade Ubuntu machines with a basic click and wait. I have upgraded from F10 to F11 with minor issue. I guess what I am saying is there needs to be a way for the new user to keep their machine updated without all the headaches. This is why some will stick with Windows. Only needs to be re-installed every year. :) And you have to pay for any upgrades. -- Robin Laing -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
