In my mind, the biggest issue with F18 is the installer which has been
commented on, and which puts things like disk partitioning under the
rug. Perhaps the goal is to mimic other popular (by ways of mob vote)
OS's, but some of us have never used anything other than a unix/linux
system and these users should not have to pay the price for not
expecting to use days of agony to upgrade a system, as I happily note my
friends in these other OS-worlds do. 
exactly THAT is the point

linux must not imitate window sor macosx
linux was and should continue to be IT'S OWN operating system

if someone like the windows way -> go and use it
if someone like the macosx way -> go and use it

but for people which switched long ago from windows to
linux because the wanted a DIFFERENT OS it is a spit in
the face that more and more windows paradigm is coming in



I agree with you there aw well Reindl, and as long as the "Windows-isms" remain few and far between then I'm satisfied. I would hate to think what would happen if Fedora decided to "mimic" Windows in ANY way! That's why I use the Gnome 3.x environment...it's so "anti-windows"...and I'm more comfortable with it than I am using anything that even remotely resembles windows!
