Let me chine in.
My company uses Fedora across the board, from netbook, laptop,
desktops, workstations to mid-end (1S/2S) and high-end (4S) servers
and countless VMs.
We also use Fedora in production servers (we require bleeding edge stack(s).
(All in all, >40 machines)
If you can live with the 13 month support cycle, Fedora can be rock solid.
