The lack of SELinux in other distributions such as Ubuntu will keep at least me from using them. Running a lot of networked services it is not an option to go without. That is one area where Fedora really shines: Pro-active security, implemented in "industry standard" ways. All the way from buffer overlow protection technologies to ACL systems support and to SELinux. It is just plain sweet and no other "free" distro comes even close.
Fedora is about pushing the envelope. Not in the way that any of the software would ever be "unstable" but in the overall features. And it's succeeding very nice. I'd say for instance Ubuntu is lagging in "Enterprise class" (or what more demanding users need/want) features some 1-2 years behind.
