I tried 2.6.0 a couple times on Fedora shortly after it was released 
to try and solve a couple problems I was having.  It caused me more
problems that it solved, so I went back to the distro 2.4 kernel.

Most recently I got serious about upgrading my laptop to 2.6.1 early
this week so I could get the centrino wireless working.  Everything I've
tried so far works (except VMware which I don't need on my laptop). 

So, unless I run into an unexpected problem, I'm sticking with 2.6 on 
my laptop.  Unfortunately I can't upgrade my desktops because I need
VMware there.  :-(
