Judging by your last statement am I to assume that CentOS is more

I've had a few abrt messages and two instances of Gnome-Shell locking
up in this F18 installation, which began as a Release Candidate 2
installation last month.
I used CentOS 6.3 as a desktop for several months and found it to be
very reliable. That reliability happens because it's been frozen in
place for several years as Red Hat fixes bugs and backports features
into the kernel. You get a standard Gnome 2 setup. Proprietary video
drivers, codecs, new kernels, current browsers, etc., are available in
unofficial repositories, but you do need to be pretty careful to avoid
conflicts.
As a recompilation of RHEL, CentOS is intended to be a server
distribution. I enjoyed it as a desktop, but eventually jumped back to
Fedora when I couldn't manage to update some core components so I
could tweak things to my satisfaction.
Am going to look into this....as I want to "build" a server at home, and
see what I can do with it.....maybe some form of central information
repository?......I'll think of something!
