That would be correct.

Yep. My IBM ThinkPad T61 laptop, which I use for 99% of my $dayjob desktop use
(docked on a ThinkPad Advanced Dock) is running rawhide. I've got several
development boxes here in the office that are a mix of the latest RHEL and
latest rawhide, as I have both package and kernel work to do on both. Some of
'em have both rawhide and RHEL installs too.
On the home front, my personal web and mail server is still lagging behind on
Fedora 9, but will get upgraded soon (yes, I consider running Fedora 9 to be
lagging behind ;). My mythtv boxes, my tinkering desktop system at home, my
Acer Aspire One netbook and my AppleTV, all running rawhide as well.
Also, taking off my Red Hat hat and speaking purely from a personal point of
view, I'd echo the sentiment that CentOS pretty much *is* Fedora LTS for those
that want such a thing.
