    We are testing, we we are testing. Here's a long, thorough, negative review of Korora 26 Bloat Gnome edition, a Fedora-based distribution tested on a laptop with Nvidia graphics in a dual-boot configuration, covering live session, installation and post-install use, including look & feel, network support - Wireless, Bluetooth, Samba sharing, Samba and Wireless printing, partitioning, package management, multimedia support - HD video and MP3 playback, smartphone support - Android and Windows Phone, applications, customization, and tons of problems like severe ergonomic issues, flaky hardware support, high resource usage and average performance, critical issues with Nvidia drivers setup, subsequently unbootable system, and more. Take a look.

    Thanks for the article. And thanks for insisting on the importance of readable fonts; why so few reviewers touch that point is both appalling and enlightening.

    Because most people don't really review - they just kind of lightly report without testing.
    Thanks!
