I don't doubt the truth of your experience, and I've heard similar reports elsewhere, but I haven't used a Linux desktop in years on modern hardware that showed any of these symptoms (stuttering/glitching, regularly crashing applications, etc). I tend to think the problem is Fedora Core, as my experience with Ubuntu, Gentoo and Slackware has been overwhelmingly positive.

I'm a long time Fedora user, and have never seen such erratic behavior (except when Fedora on x86_64 was very green; and on a machine with a broken fan, which lead to overheating funnies).
