Few years ago, I was called to visit a isp (asia net) to device a reliable
billing system for them.
They had a billing solution ( some 24 online) purchased at a huge
Whoever designed 24online deserves to be shot..
Huge NAT'ted network of cablemodem connected PCs, little or no virus
filtering, very antique software (sendmail 8.9.3) installed by default..
probably rh 6.1 or something similar
And zero protection within our outside the lan against crackers, virus
attempts etc.. its like every PC in such a LAN can see all the cable ISP
connected PCs like a big network neighborhood on windows.

I have installed Fedora Core 5 on my HP nx6120 Laptop. It looks faster
and stable than previous releases.
My observations:
1. Faster booting - it takes 60 seconds to get login screen.
2. Faster GNOME - takes 4 seconds to get desktop from gdm.
3. Samba client and Server - I am able to connect to all my Windows
PCs and Servers in LAN without any issues. Windows Printer was
configured using System->Administration->Printing tool successfully.
4. Tamil support is excellent with good fonts rendering (definitely
better than Ubuntu Dapper).
5. I have set SCIM as default Input Method frame work, which fits
natively to the entire desktop.
6. OpenOffice - starts and works faster. (Why there is no default menu
item for Draw tool? It is my favourite)
7. I installed FC5 with GNOME as desktop. After installation when I
try to install additional applications, yum always fetches from online
repos and mirrors. An option to add a CD/DVD as repository (as in
synaptic) will be a nice feature *** really worth feature ***. How to
vote for this feature in Fedora Core site?
8. Beagle is an wonderful tool. The Deskbar applet finds most useful
and well configurable (But unable to input tamil based on scim).
9. Power Management - Hibernate does not work. Can anybody help me in
doing it specific to Fedora Core 5?
10. Network Manager is awesome. I did not do any console based
configuration. My wired and wireless working fine with this tool. I am
able to switch between these two just like that.
11. Totem consume more CPU and also not stable - definitely we need a
good default multimedia player. ( I know that mplayer, xine and vlc
are there - I meant **default**. I don't talk about the proprietory
formats. I want open formats to be played efficiently and stable). Can
any one tell me why most distros keep totem as default?
12. Minimizing XMMS (borderless windows) causes restoring of all other
windows and flickering - waiting for this bug to be fixed.
In summary Fedora Core 5 is definitely a great desktop - thanks to fedora team!

I rarely shutdown my laptops, I just put it in standby mode (suspend to
ram) or hibernate (suspend to disk). You can leave all your apps running.
IMO, remembering last used state is essential for any kind of machine, I
don't want to start with a blank screen every time I boot up. The Firefox
Session Saver extension is indispensable.
The machines typically lasts atleast 36hrs on batteries in standby mode.
Waking up from standby, my laptop becomes usable (including network
access) in ~5 seconds, and it comes back with Firefox, Thunderbird, etc.
in exactly the same state when I put it to sleep.
Waking up from hibernation it reaches usable state is 20-25 seconds.
