Thanks gentlemen. I have provisioned two with

gcc
fedpkg
git
pylint
vims
emacs

The two of them are  now already engaged in a fierce vim vs emacs war :-)
These guys have already finished 1st year uni courses doing Java and Python
in an Ubuntu, Eclipse with plug-in environment , so this should be fun to
watch.

They figure it will take a week or two of playing before any real work
begins, and I'm not talking about refactoring Hello World.  :-)

As I said, they may end up back on their Lenovos to the actual coding; but
since they've never seen the XO end product  or a Fedora distribution for
where we'd like them to 'land' their applications, I think this is
constructive.

Cheers and thanks again for your time and suggestions.
