Who thinks the world revolves around Linux Ubuntu is just wrong. Leaving the oven now, Fedora 16 is a great alternative to the popular distro from Canonical, and brings several new features and improvements that deserve at least a look. Among them are included in the new version of the kernel and the relatively recent version of Firefox, Transmission and LibreOffice.
Fedora 16, codenamed Verne, among the news is a great improvement in the areas of virtualization and cloud computing using the Conductor Aeolus, a web interface for managing cloud computing. It may seem strange to many, but Fedora is a distro geared more for corporate use and for servers and it makes sense that they give a greater focus on such technologies, unlike Ubuntu which focuses more on user.
This does not mean that those who want to use Fedora 16 on a day-to-day problems or have to live with the open terminal. The new version of the distro features GNOME Shell as default window manager, and the complete package of GNOME 3.2 applications, including GNOME and GNOME Contacts Sushi. Fans can use the KDE 4.7.2 version of the manager, other managers of your choice.
In addition we also have the kernel 3.1.0, Firefox 7.0.1, 19.4 Deja Dup Backup tool, Totem 3.2.1, 3.4 and LibreOffice Transmission 2.42. A complete package and updated programs for your use.
Fedora is a distro of Linux world more traditional, direct heir of the famous Red Hat, and well worth a look. If you want to test the distro, you can download the ISO on the project site. On that same page, you can find other downloadable versions in 64-bit or KDE as default.
