OK, I will bite.

To me the best OS on the market.  It works day in and day out on any 
system that I have installed it on.  It isn't Windows and it isn't Ubuntu.

I know and work with many people that use it.  I have seen it used on 
small computers, robots, the XO, servers and clusters.  I use it at home 
on all of our machines.  Have not owned a copy of Windows since Windows 
3.11.  Don't use Windows at work either.  Fedora 10 (64bit).

Schools and governments use Linux of which some are Fedora.

To me?  Everyone.  Well for the new to Linux crowd, Ubuntu is better but 
that is basically in regards to the "questionable packages."  With a 
little configuration it is easy to set up a full system in hours.

If you have a machine with a small hard drive, the Fedora is great.  I 
just installed a full setup for a local club on a 30Gig drive.  All the 
software takes up less than 8Gig and believe me, I have installed a lot 
of software.

If you have a need for a wide range of software and on any type of 
budget, Fedora is the only way to go.  Ok, any version of Linux is a 
good way to go, just to be honest.  :)
