Well - really isn't it all in what tool makes the most sense for the job at hand? If one doesn't need the latest and greatest - CentOS as a desktop is super stable...
Don't get me wrong, I like Fedora...but still :)

I think when CentOS 6 is released, that may not be even close to true :) I'm running RHEL 6 @ work as my desktop - it has a fairly decent version of KDE (4.3 specifically) - and this is on a laptop -> its great ;)
Until a year from now. When it is again well behind faster moving desktop distros.
ok I have tried.. suse 11.3 very nice ubuntu 10.10 ok fedora 14 very nice debian squeeze very very nice centos 5.5 i386 love it Want to try x86_64.. laptop is capable will see
Run x86_64 as my workstation at work and everything works as advertised, though I use 32-bit firefox for max plugin compatibility. Don't need 64-bit address space for web browsing, if a page doesn't fit in under 3GB of memory (ahem... Cisco, 1000 page web page? Really? Ever heard of a TOC?), then it ain't worth browsing to.
