    Why not just use Fedora 10? I am sure it would work fine on that computer.

    Good point, maybe the Red Hat drivers are certified by Dell and we will get support from them ????

    I don't know. Some agreement/association. I think Red Hat is good to know if you use it at work or something or want to pass some certification. Fedora is good because it's based on it and is basically a 'testing environment' for Red Hat engineers so they say. I have Fedora 10 on one of my partitions and I like it. I am used to Debian (and Debian-based distros) though so the differences in Fedora often throw me for a loop but yumex in particular works pretty good.
