Is it safe to also add RPM Fusion (http://rpmfusion.org/) ?
I am accustomed with sabayon (used for 5 months now) but for some reasons, I
focus now on Scientific Linux ( I like the idea to run a operating system made
and maintained by CERN and Fermilab and I am curious what enterprise/server
operating system stability means, how is the feeling when using it on my laptop
plus others interests)
I have used ubuntu for 1-2 week's but it is a real mess from my point of view.
Fedora 14 had some serious bugs problems with adobe flash when surfin on the
internet - the youtube movies where going fast foward) - in sc linux youtube
run's smooth & fine.
I am now downloading linux mint 11 to take a look over it.
