The only two real problems I have seen with FC13 are video (if you have Intel, 
ATI or Nvidea other than the latest use vendor drivers or vesa mode), and the 
endlessly denied bug involving trying to use the network after suspend before 
the network is restarted. Removal of NetworkMangler and custom network scripts 
will fix that.

I have had much better luck doing an upgrade after booting an FC13 install DVD.
I'm 5 of 6 for that, 1 of 3 for preupgrade. In general a reinstall is better, 
and setting up to allow that during initial install makes that fairly painless.
