If you want your Fedora to be best ever, just grab a copy of Fedora DVD or live iso from here and test the features you like. Checkout the Fedora 10 feature list and test as many as possible.

If you don’t have access to optical media (cd/dvd rom) and want to try the live iso, VirtualBox is your friend. Grab the latest version of VirtualBox for your distro and platfrom from Sun download center and install using rpm or yum. Using VirtualBox is quite easy. Here is a video tutorial for noobs on how to test pre-release live ISOs using VirualBox. Have fun :)

Fedora 8 Test 3 aka Fedora 7.92 is out now and available for download from Fedora mirrors. I downloaded the Test 3 Live CD iso and just tested in Virtual Machine qemu. Believe me, Fedora 8 is going to be a huge improvement in basic graphics in Fedora. The graphical interface is far better than the previous release and it’ll be a delight to work on the new default Gnome theme called Nodoka especially designed for Fedora 8.The new release has got glassy/glossy looks everywhere from buttons to icons to menus.The login screen has come a long way. The electronics spin of Fedora 8 will definitely be a gift for people studying electronics at engineering level as they have introduced some packages related to circuit design and all.

I am happy to see that eclipse will be back in Fedora 8. Also, Fedora 8 comes with codecBuddy which will help to guide people to use free alternatives of audio/video codecs. A better network support is guaranteed for sure :) Also, developes are trying to limit the use of desktop environment as root. In Test 3 if you try to login as root, the gdm will display a warning.

If you want to browse complete feature list for Fedora 8 Test 3, it is available here.
