Fedora is an open source variant of the Linux operating system. Fedora is released as both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. A 32-bit Fedora version supports up to 4 gigabytes of computer memory, whereas the 64-bit operating system recognizes a virtually unlimited amount of memory. The Linux command "uname" allows you to get information about your Fedora computer, including the version of the operating system.
