Another breed called Arch Linux seems to believe that i686-optimized packagers would be better than the i386-optimized ones. http://www.archlinux.org/about.php I came across this a while ago, that's why I ask a simlar question in the fedora-list mailing list. A friend told me that he felt the power with arch linux. He used Fedora before and complained that Fedora was getting bloated and claimed arch linux was delivering more performance. Oh well I can't really compare or couldn't verify it but I'm really happy with Fedora. -- Cheers, Didier. ------------ Didier F.B Casse | PhD candidate | LiMiNT Beamline Singapore Synchrotron Light Source (SSLS), 5 Research Link, Singapore 117603 Email: elprodigioREMOVE_THIS_ANTISPAM_MOJO@xxxxxxxxx| Web: http://ssls.nus.edu.sg | GPG Key 1024D/B3C57D01 2004-06-23
