It's not that bizzare is it?  I used to be the biggest Fedora fanboy, 
having started with RH it just felt right for me, and once this split 
into RH/Fedora, I used Fedora exclusively from day 1.  After seeing 
Ubuntu's synaptic in action fairly recently though I was hooked, and I 
have been using that more (if only to try out some of the other packages 
I probably wouldn't bother with otherwise).

I still have a soft spot for Fedora though, and do prefer the Fedora way 
of doing things.  I'll probably go back with FC8, hopefully they will 
have sorted a couple of the other little niggles too.

This is with Gnome BTW.

Curious as to why you asked also...
