The easiest answer is to read through the CentOS FAQ's - http://centos.org/modules/smartfaq/c...p?categoryid=2 rather than get people to write them out all over again. That sums it all up quite nicely, just remember CentOS isn't a direct replacement for Fedora in terms of desktop use, but RHEL.
Fedora Core is a cutting-edge distribution where software is constantly updated to the newest stuff (and so is possibly less stable). Also, Fedora Core is community-developed and maintained and has much more packages than CentOS / RHEL. CentOS / RHEL is designed to be very stable and so has older software doesn't get updates to their software once released (except security fixes). To some extent, RedHat uses Fedora Core as a testing bed for software in future releases of RHEL.
