hello im from israel and i would like to know if fedora supportes foreign languages such as vebrew. what programs come packaged with the 3 gb fedora that i am d/l now and will linux ply mp3 files and does it have support for itues and ipos. i know that i have alot of questions but this is very important to me and hope to get rid of windows once and for all with linux.
 
Fedora does NOT offer out of the box support for mp3 files (nor NTFS support for that matter). You can get both from third party vendors though.
The software included is top notch - office suites, programming/developement, internet.
I believe there is a Hebrew support, but how good it is I do not know (don't speak - haven't used).
 
First of all, WELCOME TO ANANDTECH. I suggest that you contact RH for some of the lnaguage support, maybe they will be able to help you out better or visit the rh.com I'm postive that information has to be in there somewhere.
 
Wellcome! While I understand english is not your native language, it would do you well to try to use punctuation 😉

And Fedora Core should include support for it, though I'm not sure if it is localized 100% and will let you type. I know though yo ucan type other languages (although i'm currently struggling to figure out to how input chinese text so I can do homework for my class)
 
Yep, Linux has great support for Hebrew. gnome, open-office, firefox all work great with hebrew. It is very simple to install the required packages for hebrew if you use Ubuntu:

For many other reasons, I recommend you install Ubuntu instead of Fedora. They will even ship you the install CD for free (www.ubuntulinux.org) . If you haven't heard about it yet, just go to www.distrowatch.com and see which distro as at the top of the chart.....
