    Schrodinger's Cat is so well-known as the victim of a cruel thought experiment, that there is no need to explain further - although it is worth pointing out that Schrodinger actually liked cats.
    So Fedora 19 is most rigorously tested release😉

    GCC 4.8 sounds good. And again new Anaconda UI? I hope they didn't changed it too much!
