Fedora is a fine distro. The only issue is that you will need to upgrade about every 9 months unless the legacy project picks up support. They currently state that each release will be support for 2 to 3 months after new release. So with FC2 coming out May 17, FC1 will no longer have updates starting the end of July/August. Some people want to install an inexpensive distro and have support for a while. Many small businesses probably wouldn't mind upgrading every 18 to 24 months but 8 to 9 might be a bit much.
