Respect on this list is obtained by providing high-quality advice to people 
who ask for it. Craig is a long-term participant on this list, and does hold a 
certain amount of respect in the eyes of other people here. OTOH, I don't 
remember you giving any advice to anyone here, up until this thread started.

The "stop using Fedora" is in fact a very useful advice --- if Fedora does not 
meet your needs, you have absolute freedom to try out and migrate to some 
other distro that does. Fedora is not for everyone, and I don't always 
recommend it to everyone. It takes a certain personality profile to be able to 
use Fedora successfully. Most notably the ability to embrace new technologies, 
the ability to put up with occasional rough edges, and the ability to handle 
steep learning curves.

If you don't have these abilities, then Fedora is probably not the right 
choice for you. If I were you, I would give Craig's advice more serious 
consideration.

HTH :-)
