Fedora/Redhat can NOT be the best distro for all applications. Perhaps it isn't a very good desktop. I wouldn't know. I use them as servers. If Ubuntu is a better desktop, great! When I need a desktop I will install that. I think Redhat/Fedora make superior server distros and that is what I use them for. There is plenty of room for a great desktop distro and a great server distro. In the long run, it might even be wise for Redhat to specialize on the server sector. The number of applications that are available for Linux has grown to the point where I don't see how one company, no matter the size, would be able to find the 'best of breed' apps for everything. With growth, comes change.
I agree that one distro should not be both server AND desktop. Even M$ has a desktop version of Windows (Vista) and a server version (Server). Well, it might be more like trashcan version and spambot version, but you get the point.
