Red Hat Desktop – one of the first Linux distributions that was mostly used until 2003, when by surprisingly they announced the it discontinue the current system by focusing on Red Hat Enterprise, which was the distribution especially developed for business use and the support and certification programs that were mostly responsible for company’s sales.

红帽桌面 –最早使用到2003年的Linux发行版之一 ，令人惊讶的是，他们宣布通过专注于红帽企业版来停止使用当前系统， 红帽企业版是专门为企业使用以及支持和认证计划而开发的发行版。主要负责公司的销售。

The discontinuance of Red Hat Desktop has elevated serious doubts about the viability of using Linux on desktops, however all the doubts were quickly dispelled by the announcement of Fedora project, which became the authorized heir to the Red Hat Desktop, that was going to be developed by a community with the support and contributions from the developers at Red Hat.

Red Hat Desktop的停产使人们对在桌面上使用Linux的可行性产生了严重的怀疑，但是所有的疑问很快被Fedora项目的宣布所消除，该项目成为了Red Hat Desktop的授权继承人在Red Hat开发人员的支持和贡献下，由社区提供。

The initial idea was of announcing the Fedora development for Red Hat was to lower the cost of distribution and at the same time, inspire community contributions, making the project grow. The reason behind not using the name “Red Hat” for its new release has more to do with its marketing. The Red Hat brand is generally used only in commercial products as a way to inspire the purchase.

最初的想法是宣布Red Hat的Fedora开发是为了降低发行成本，同时激发社区贡献，使该项目不断壮大。 在新版本中未使用“ Red Hat”这个名称的原因与营销有关。 红帽品牌通常仅用于商业产品中，以激发购买动机。

The desktop of Fedora operating system is quite similar to the Ubuntu, since both the distribution are based on GNOME and use the classic looks, with two bars.

Fedora操作系统的桌面与Ubuntu十分相似，因为这两个发行版均基于GNOME并使用经典外观(带有两个栏)。

All the modern versions of Fedora OS uses the Network Manager for network setup, and beyond, you will observe that it also has several other tools in common with Ubuntu which makes both the distribution much closer. Its because most of these utilities both the distributions offers were developed by the Red Hat team and Fedora and thenceforth integrated into other distributions that use GNOME.

Fedora OS的所有现代版本都使用网络管理器进行网络设置，并且您会发现，它还有与Ubuntu相同的其他几个工具，这使得分发更加紧密。 这是因为发行版提供的大多数实用程序都是由Red Hat团队和Fedora开发的，此后便集成到了其他使用GNOME的发行版中。

Even if you don’t prefer the Fedora OS, we must thank the original developers of it, as many of the innovations we see in the recent distributions to make our lives simple, were originally created and improved by the Fedora team.

即使您不喜欢Fedora OS，我们也必须感谢它的原始开发者，因为我们在最近的发行版中看到的许多使生活更简单的创新都是Fedora团队创造和改进的。

Despite of not having a good user base, it shows how the Fedora distribution is important for the growth of the system, serving as a production base for the development of many elements that were lately integrated into other distributions.

尽管没有良好的用户基础，但它显示了Fedora发行版对于系统增长的重要性，它是开发许多后来集成到其他发行版中的元素的生产基础。

The most appealing feature of Fedora is the frenetic pace of updates. The system is not only updated every six months, but also includes a set of spectacularly updated packages as compare to the Windows versions.

Fedora最吸引人的功能是疯狂的更新速度。 该系统不仅每六个月更新一次，而且与Windows版本相比，还包括一组引人注目的更新软件包。

Fedora is one of the distributions highly prefered in dedicated server hosting plans. The main reason behind it is that the packets related to servers acquire more attention and are well tested. The approach to the active contribution on Fedora, and prioritizing the development of server related functions have surprisingly made Fedora as the best distribution in corporate servers.

Fedora是专用服务器托管计划中极受欢迎的发行版之一。 其背后的主要原因是与服务器有关的数据包获得了更多关注并经过了充分测试。 在Fedora上做出积极贡献并优先开发服务器相关功能的方法令人惊讶地使Fedora成为公司服务器中的最佳发行版。

If you wish to use a highly stable desktop, you can prefer Fedora for a long time and just install the security pathches and minor updates that are frequently released. Using the Ubuntu or Debian would be less desirable options. If you want to enjoy new features and have access to all the new versions of packages before they are available in other distributions, then Fedora is what you must choose.

如果您希望使用高度稳定的桌面，则可以选择长期使用Fedora，而只需安装经常发布的安全路径和次要更新。 使用Ubuntu或Debian不太理想。 如果您想享受新功能并在所有其他发行版中可用之前访问所有新版本的软件包，则必须选择Fedora。
