[GPM original message] However now knowing that Fedora is "no longer"

either Ubuntu and Fedora.
wtf is a power user distro anyway?
You can call something a newbie distro, as newbies have a limited skill
set, and are used to doing things a certain way... (*cough* winblows
*cough*)
But A poweruser distro?
A true power user may sit and compile Linux From Scratch. A power user
can just as easily make a stable system out of a live CD.
What I'm trying to say is,
there is no such thing as a distro for power users.
Power users need tools, and all linux distros provide the same, or
really similar tools. Fedora is no exception.
Usually it boils down to a basic question: How much of the distribution
can I tweak to meet my preferences without touching the source code (on
the command line too) ?
For example, see the question on dependency bloat from Max Spevack's
slashdot interview.
