Well that is your choice of course.But do you really need all of the office suites? All of GNOME? Or KDE? Or Apache? All of the language packages? ;-)
And Anne is correct here. Fedora has said before that some things just don't play together well.
If you are looking for a local repo of packages that you can install on several machines why not just set yum to keep the package(s) that you download and use them on the other machines instead of downloading all of these packages? Most of which you will not use anyway.
