First boot after the installation was slow since the default 2.6.18.x kernel detected the SATA DVD Drive as a SATA Hard Drive. As a result, it continued to poll the device for information before it finally gave up. Running yum and updating the packages updates the system to a 2.6.20.x kernel which resolves this problem.

Some minor issues with the ATI video card. The default xorg drivers work okay for 2D apps. Using the proprietary ATI drivers to get 3D functionality is a little painful. To get Compiz/Beryl running requires several modifications to the xorg.conf file, and it's not always guaranteed to work.

Other than that, system is solid and works great.
