Given that RPMfusion still offers it, I would say that the developers have the 
latest hardware and the budget that implies, and regard two years old as not 
worth supporting.

Helps greatly. The hardware we got three years ago which ran fine up through FC9 
and which was specified particularly to run Linux now has had xen, kqemu, and 
older Radeon support removed by the time we got to FC13.

Fedora is cutting edge, replace the distro every six months, obviously replace 
the hardware at that time, too. Time to go in another direction.
