I have to say, the Ctrl+Enter is a bit of a problem for me in Claws — it sends without confirmation, which can lead to embarrassing situations. (C-v followed by Enter is a particularly common scenario where I fumble the keys.)

I am finally giving fedora a fair run. I have head much about how fedora follows good practices and does a lot of work upstream were ubuntu does not as much.

I have to say I am liking Fedora at this point. The one thing that drives me nuts is how slow yum is compared to apt.

I have dual boot with windows and ubuntu, i used fedora before, but for getting flash works on firefox, i think it was easy with ubuntu, it just show what to install. Same for programs, if i run git in command line, if its not installed, ubuntu shows how to install it, fedora do not do that, you need to use yum, not difficult task, still it look like ubuntu is more user newbe friendly. I will try again Fedora.

I was about to move to Ubuntu with Windows on VM when read this post.
What kind of tasks can’t be solved with Windows on VM?
