A long as you can access and go-about-your-daily business using a browser (as opposed to using a locally installed software), a mobile device such as a tablet (with or w/o a keyboard) is more than enough. BTW, I do agree that Fedora should *not* follow Ubuntu's footsteps and go smart-phone happy. Even though desktop computers (that already have been taken to the cleaners by laptops, which in-turn, are about to being take to the cleaners, by tablets, etc) are on verge of becoming a small minority, we're still talking about millions of computers; plus given Microsoft's and Ubuntu's move toward idiot-proof OS', Fedora actually has a chance to instead it's user base. - Gilboa -- 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 Have a question?
