I think that the upgrade paths are likely to go smoother with their EL
products than with Fedora. Though Fedora upgrade (from RH 9) went
reasonably well for me, I did ultimately need to nuke ~/.openoffice to
get it to work.

Fedora will ultimately offer more exiting and more edgier updates than
RHEL/WS. I find RH AS 3 to be very fast and very stable but if your
desire is to run the latest version of KDE for example, Fedora would be
a better route.
