Depends on what do you counting as World apart :)
It's redhat as a matter of form - I mean, if you are already get used  to 
where things are under Redhat you'll feel like nothing has changed (config 
files, scripts etc).
On a good side - I would call fedora "redhat 9 ++", or Redhat 10.
It's improved dramaticaly - speed, performance, hardware detection.
Well, I not trying to sell it :), I don't even have it right now. Used to run 
for week till my home less devoted linux users, traded windows for Suse.
My part of the deal was to let fedora go :)
But, believe me or not - it was the best redhat desktop distro I used in 
years.
Best regards,
Denis.
