hello i am thinking about switching to fedora and i am having a heck of a time trying to get information, i have a dell Inspiron B130 celeron processor. and i can't seem to find if there are any hard ware incompatibilities and weather or not i can have it installed on this computer without having major cross compatibility issues, i have some programs such as windows media player and windows movie maker that i would like to continue to use, as well as a few built in hardware features. so i guess my question would be, fedora 8, is it for me?

Maybe there's need to be a better explanation for the Desktop list? I see way too often "off-topic" messages posted to this list too, so maybe it is time to better explain what the purpose of the list is? The message doesn't seem to be getting across the audience all that well, as if someone want s to use Fedora as a desktop OS, they find this list and "assume" (as we know, incorrectly) that it is the right place to post. Even the name may be deceiving (fedora-deskop, instead of fedora-desktop-devel or some such), maybe is time to check that? For many feodra-users gets way too much traffic, and some feel more granularity about fedora usage is in order (similar to the granularity of the forums in fedoraforum, I'm not directly comparing, though), at any rate one thin is clear, a better statement of the purpose of the list, or a better way to make it clear enough... Though I can hardly think of anything better than what we already have in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate
