Redhat already has Fedora as a testing ground.
True, but Fedora is a bleeding-edge Linux, while CentOS is a stable Linux. Both have their place.

Some years back I REALLY tried living with Centos on my notebook. I now put up with the Fedora eol joys. Just jumped from 17 to 20. You just got to love, ahem, what the Gnome team is doing....
No. (And if you *had* to do fedora, why not 19?)
Because it will be eol before you blink. So even if f20 is brand new, you at least live with it for a while before the next update. Plus i got to find a bug with NVRAM update with my Lenovo x120e which is now an RFE for f21. If I had been on f19, might not have caught this, or had a bigger struggle to get them to realize that the NVRAM update should be the LAST step of the installation, not so early, so if it fails you still have a bootable install. I got some good help to get things working.
A thought: have you considered trying to install dual boot with the current CentOS? I've been considering redoing my netbook, with the thought of getting rid of the Ubuntu netbook remix....
Well since I am now running on an SSD drive, I have my old HD to test with. Maybe. Or maybe I will wait until Centos 7 comes out. ;)
