yum vs apt

[Paul Welsh]

Apologies if this question is beneath contempt but I'm running Fedora
Core 1 on a single co-lo server.  It will be live shortly and I intend
making as few changes as possible.

On 15 November, Jesse Keating said "Red Hat will provide
backports/updates for a FC release up to 2~3 months after the next FC
release.  Fedora Legacy will pick it up and continue on through."

Is yum or apt my best bet in terms of installing updates?
