    I was thinking about giving Fedora 10 a shot, I was just wondering how hard it was to make it flash-enabled and give it the ability to play MP3's? Figured about giving it a shot as I am sick of Ubuntu!

    I switched from Ubuntu to Fedora 10 a little over a month ago and have no regrets :)

    I recommend mplayer/smplayer for video and songbird for audio.

    http://www.my-guides.net/en/content/view/125/26/ is where I started when I switched to Fedora.
