Perhaps they have come a long way:  I started only with F17, so I can't
say anything about older versions.

If you like having more recent software and a distribution that can be
upgraded, you could give F19 a try.  Upgradeability provides more
continuity on the long run than a non-upgradeable distribution that has
a long lifetime instead can.
