Fedora and computing in general.

To Chris Negus: Today, I got my Linux computer back from the shop where 
I usually go when all the alleged updates show up that include a kernal 
change! For Some reason RedHat and Fedora cannot make the kernal changes 
user friendly and, unless you are a computer guru and work with the 
technical side on a regular basis, the changes CANNOT be installed 
without screwing up your computer!!!!! I am talking as a user, not as a 
technician nor a programmer, which I am NEITHER! It is absolutely NO 
wonder why people shy away from Linux, entirely, with all the constant 
"update and upgrade" garbage that goes on, and yet the idiots who 
program the code CANNOT and WILL NOT understand that very fact! It is 
very clear to me that they are NOT interested in making Linux truly user 
friendly, whatsoever! I have tried SuSe before this and found it to be 
very user unfriendly, with no relief in sight! AND I am afraid that 
Fedora/Redhat is not that much better! You just cannot go on changing 
versions which DO NOT improve what was already out and keep a straight 
face when asked by a Windows user, WHY BOTHER? Linux WILL NEVER overcome 
Windows until it gets its act together and can field a product that can 
STAND on its own feet for a longer period than 6 months!  UNTIL LINUX OF 
ANY VERSION CAN FIELD A PRODUCT THAT IS TRULY USER FRIENDLY AND THAT CAN 
LAST LONGER THAN 12 MONTHS BETWEEN CHANGES IT WILL NEVER BE AS 
WIDESPREAD AS WINDOWS NOR AS ACCEPTED EITHER! AND, YES, I AM YELLING, 
BECAUSE I AM TIRED OF ALL THE SHENANIGANS THAT GO ON AND I AM SURE LINUS 
THORVALD NEVER MEANT FOR THIS GARBAGE TO HAPPEN! >:o
