I may do that eventually, but I have a free test voucher from CompTIA, and I picked up the courseware on Amazon for dirt cheap. I haven't really played with Fedora much, but 80% of the Linux-heads I know swear by it.
I switched away from fedora in favor of Suse(since 10.0) for one reason.... YaST.
But I'd recommend fedora to anyone. There's very very little left that you'd be required to do in CLI with it, though the last one I used was FC4. In Suse, I don't have to do CLI for one single thing. It's great.
In case you cared........ :-P
