Well, as long as yum is working -- which seems to take a lot more and more
frequent tweaking -- I prefer it to up2date. (I haven't really tried
synaptic yet; haven't even run it.) So at least on the FC1 machines, I
should remove the launchers on the panel for up2date. 

Any advice as between synaptic and yum? I presume each has pros and cons.
