I've installed Fedora 17 on a few computers. It is working pretty well
so far. Gnome 3.4 is nice although I'm looking forward to seeing more
apps that are designed to use the new menus and run maximized.
I have found issues with voice and video calls using Empathy on Google
Talk servers. Also, Cheese is slow when initializing Logitech webcams.
Both are works-in-progress.
A new functionality in Fedora 17 is Multiseat which uses Plugable USB
docking stations.
