may i ask what is lacking about fedora core 2? ( i am a newbie and i run fedora core 2 on my laptop also so i have no clue what it is lacking) if there is a better one out there i am willing to switch. so far the only thing i hate about fc2 is the stinking red hat update system. It flashes more for updates than my windows xp box.
