I upgraded my laptop from Core 5 to Core 6 on Wednesday.  The upgrade
went smoothly with no significant issues.  I plan on updating a desktop
at home in the very near future.

I am running GNOME, applications seem quite responsive (probably due to
Fedora Core applications have been rebuilt using DT_GNU_HASH).

I haven't played with Xen in the final release, but it was working well
in several of the test releases.  Relatively easy to get a Xen guest up
and running.

The demos of the eye candy I have seen are impressive.  Mine is not
working so well yet, so I can't vouch much for it quite yet.

In my opinion so far, it's been a good release.
