According to Mel Seder, way back on 17 Oct 2003:
> I downloaded the iso's for fedora,  burnt them, and did an install.
> The  "everything" download was a bit more than 5 GIGS.
> 
> Mozilla seems to be much faster.
> I like using fedora so far (I'm using a beta version).  when I
> installed fedora it seemed to run quite faster right out of the box.
> 
> I can't get MusicPlayer to play a MP3 because I can't browze for that
> file using the MusicPlayer.  Has anyone played a MP3 yet?
