GET FEDORA 7

There are several versions of Fedora 7 available, depending on your usage needs and technical skills.

I am a basic desktop user (web browsing, office documents, etc.).
    --> We send them to the "Fedora 7 Live CD", the one based on Gnome

I am a developer who wants a general purpose workstation (desktop, programming tools, etc.).
    --> We send them to the spin "Fedora 7", previously called Prime

I still don't consider the name "Fedora 7" is not distinct enough for a spin. If a user saying I installed the Fedora 7 release he could very well be referring to one of the other spins instead. Other than I would drop "previously called Prime" part since that was used only in test releases and the wider audience wouldn't have heard about it.

I am an advanced user who wants to be able to pick and choose from all available Fedora packages.
    --> We send them to the spin "Fedora 7 Everything"

I am an expert, and I want to build my own custom spin of Fedora.
    --> We send them to docs that explain how.

I am a curious user, and I want to browse/download custom Fedora spins that other people or groups have created.
    --> We send them to a page, which includes the KDE Live CD, and
        other custom spins that the Board has blessed.

This kinda makes the KDE Live CD live in a obscure corner which I don't prefer. I understand the need to avoid confusion. My alternative suggestion is:

I am a basic desktop user (web browsing, emails etc)
    -> Fedora GNOME Live images
I am a basic desktop user who prefers KDE
    -> Fedora KDE Live images
