I spent a few hours this morning annotating a dead tree copy of the
F12 install guide as it exists now and was thinking the same thing. We
are currently at 116 pages - and while a lot of that is appendices,
there is a lot of content, and it's not the kind of thing I'd toss at
my mother or grandmother to try and get them to install Fedora. I
think you are right though - F12 is probably the best bet for this -
say just cover LiveCD installation or something of that nature.
