Thanks for everyone's help.  

I was able to create a bootable usb memory stick with :

livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr --msdos path-to/Fedora-*.iso /dev/sdb1

Unfortunately the F16 LiveCD would not work, but the F16 Fedora iso did
work.  I was able to boot into fallback mode of gnome3 only.

the ACER N281G is a little slower than I expected, but will work fine
for my dev use.   Only thing that I have not been able to activate is
the wireless.  Still working on this.

Thanks again for your help!!!

Greg
