New Fedora Released
By Jakob Griffith on Jun 9th, 2009 at 11:24PM
A select few know that today a new Linux distro has been released known as Fedora 11. If you’re new to Linux, you might give a Live CD a try and find that you like it. I’ll spare you the details, but a few enticing features include:
- 20 Second boot – Seriously, Windows takes over a minute!
- New TextUI – Installing fonts has never been easier!
- Increased File Security – Linux has been known for the lack of viruses and is now even more secure!
- MinGW – My personal favorite: the ability to make programs for Linux, or Windows, without having to boot into Windows.
And of course tons more. We’ll give a full review and recap within the next week or so, stay tuned!
ya know what else boots in 20 seconds? OS X lol

and does anyone else think this looks a bit like vista? im sure its not like it at all under the hood but from a visual stand point it kinda looks more like a windows OS than previous versions of fedora IMO.

i personally always really liked Fedora over some of the other Linux Distros, but that’s just my 2 cents.
