Fedora is a distribution of Linux that is used by Red Hat as a testing 
ground to prove and test software for its flagship Red Hat Enterprise 
Linux. Red Hat was, at one point, a free, open source distribution until 
the model was changed and now Red Hat is a purchased, enterprise-level 
distribution of Linux. Fedora, in essence, has taken the place of the 
free version of Red Hat.

Anyone accustomed to the RPM package manager and who cut their teeth on 
Red Hat.

New users should avoid Fedora unless they want to be forced to learn the 
ins and outs of solving Linux issues.
