Fedora 18 is EOLed so don't even think about starting there. If you
really want to use Fedora you need to be comfortable with upgrading at
least once a year. Note that F19 will be EOLed when F21 comes out in a
few months. Centos might be a better option.

A good way to test hardware compatibility is to try one of the Live
versions booted from CD. They are very much desktop-oriented though.
