This time round I have separate partition for /home as well, but - there is a lot of time and effort spent in downloading software and configuring software. I guess I have my yum logs and I could “replay” all the yum installs into a new distro - but still - a working installation is more than just data in /home and what you get out of the box. Even trivial stuff like fonts to more major stuff like server configs and as I said, installed software. I think best to not go through that every 6 months if not necessary. Also maybe this will allow them to work out the gnome3 issues.

Well, yeah--the software installs can be a pain. I used to reinstall every six months just because I liked playing with new OSes. However, the rest of my life has become more demanding, so I am cutting back. I stayed with F12 until EOL, and did the preupgrade thing just to get to F14. Still not sure how I like the results--It still seems like F12, but with some newer packages.

I'll probably stay with F15 until EOL, then go to whatever version is newest at the time.
