Same here, though I moved up to FC1 because it had better Java support. So far, RH7.3 remains a favorite for stability. I'm more cautious about FC2, which is quite ambitious in introducing 2.6 among others. I've had enough problems with NPTL and execshield already. I might take a backseat until the 2.6 kernel hits 2.6.12 or something. The early 2.4 kernels were more trouble than they were worth. -- Gino LV.
