<div>Apparantly Linus himself uses Fedora : <a href="http://apcmag.com/linus_torvalds_talks_future_of_linux_page_3.htm">http://apcmag.com/linus_torvalds_talks_future_of_linux_page_3.htm</a> , so that says something about it.</div>

<div>I run a mixed Fedora / Ubuntu setup. I have two homes. The main one uses a Fedora 9 backend (and is the 'main' computer with several TB of RAID storage), with Ubuntu frontends, and at my other I have an Ubuntu frontend/backend. I used to be 100% Fedora.</div>
<br>I found Ubuntu is easier to use and install (and get things like audio on flash working), but I prefer the flexibility of Fedora for my main backend - so my ideal combo is Fedora on the back, and Ubuntu on the front. The main similarity with both distros is they get better and better with each release.</div>
