Everytime all I do is focus on what Fedora Core does and does not do. I do _not_ try to contrast and compare to other distributions. I let the distribution stand for itself. That's the only way to deal with the nay-sayers. Especially the ones that have never touched Fedora Core themselves, or haven't gotten past the installer before saying, "ewww, too Red Hat-like." Ironic because some of the worst nay-sayers are former Red Hat users and knew nothing else. Most of them are sour because when the freely redistributable version of Linux with the "Red Hat(R)" was gone, they couldn't justify it with their boss anymore. The key is to showing how much Fedora Core has improved since the end of the Red Hat Linux line. And that's actually pretty easy to do. And for those that don't want to listen, they just get enfuriated, and you ignore them. You just stick to focusing on Fedora Core. -- Bryan J.
