apt vs yum

Can someone explain to me the differences, if any, of yum versus apt?

I really like the graphical tool synaptic, which I believe is just a front
end to apt.  On the other hand, I haven't found a nice graphical tool for
yum (yumex, kyum, smart aren't nearly as nice as synaptic).

thanks for helping me clear this up,
BT
