They're really not going very quick. FC2 and FC3 were both out for a while until the next release came out. I used FC4 a little, but the only problem I noticed was the Eclipse IDE. I didn't get all butt hurt about though, because I could just as easily use GCC to compile it all...
FC2 was pretty stable though, it just lacked some slight functionality. I think it's good that they're up to 5. They are trying to gradually break away from the Red Hat enterprise, and become their own entity. Just got finished downloading the DVD Iso file, so I'll give it a shot tonight.
But unless you've really used Fedora for what it's worth, quit bitching and moaning about it, and give it a shot. It isn't quite ready to be a 100% stable server platform yet. Use RHEL or SUSE to do that, but for a personal workstation/desktop platform, it works great!
The best advise is though, don't get to used to the GUI...it just weakens your expertise. Abuse of the GUI, allows the OS to command you; use the shell, and you command the OS...
