The main distros don't offer a guarantee, but it seems that when there's
a vulnerability out, they are among the first to issue a patch. I don't
know how it will play out with Fedora, but when they basically say
"don't count on it", I will start looking elsewhere. Maybe the support
for Fedora will be as good as it's been for RH all along, who knows?
I'm just looking around. We'll have to see.

I'm not a Debian fan, for sure! As has been hashed out in another
thread, Linux might not be ready for Grandma yet, but it's getting
closer. I just think it's time for the main distros to really make the
push for the desktop, now that M$ has left the door opened.
