Just to add my 2 Eurocents:
We are running CentOS here on the server and Fedora Core on the Desktops for
software development. It's actually not a bad combination. Fedora Core is
generally a great distribution. It is kind of a moving target with all the
updates that are flowing in constantly. Sometimes you have to play around
with the settings on your desktop, because application XY was upgraded to a
newer version that behaves slightly different. However the underlying system
itself is generally rock stable.
I generally would not recommend Fedora on a server. But for a developer
workstation always having the bleeding edge stuff can even be an advantage.
Expecially when it comes to multimedia.

P.s. I also had Fedora on some of our servers. Also works nice, but keeping
them up to date can be really tiresome. CentOS makes life so much easier in
this case. :-)
