I use GitHub but I've never tried github:fi, and I'm not the target audience.

I've heard from some people that have reviewed it from their corporate deployments, and the typical process seems to be 1) Oh an internal GitHub would be nice 2) It costs WHAT!.

Here's some issues that were noted when pobox was looking at it, I think they eventually went with some gitweb + fork support kind of thing:

GitHub has a really nice UI, but a startup cost of a $100k for a 100 man company seems like a lot to fork out for that, when you can get away with using e.g. gitorious or a gitweb setup with some customization.
