I have run FC1 and FC2. FC2 is unstable. FC1 has been perfectly stable. I use FC1 every day on my servers and workstations.
With my customers, I still install FC1. That would be my advise to anyone. Wait for FC3 and see what happens. FC2 was their first attempt at the 2.6 kernel and they are still working out the bugs.
