Morning, Completely agree, I updated to 30 last thing last night. A relatively simple, quick and easy process, I was impressed. 23 was just a copy I had downloaded from somewhere for the USB. When I had it installed, it was quite easy to find a link to download the latest version using the fedora installer. Initially I couldnt find a suitable download link to make a USB live CD from windows. It seemed alot easier when you could pick up linux format or lud....or I'm just not very au fait. 30 is very different from 23, or the user interface. I'll look forward to having a play with it. It installed gcc automatically this time, so that was good. I couldn't find it in the software tab.
