[TriLUG] FC2/3 on Dell PE 650/750 instead of RHEL 3.x

[Turnpike Man]

I still hold concerns for distros such as WBEL and CentOS as to whether the
updates will be available as quickly as necessary.  Also, are there "up2date"
like features that will let me know when something needs to be updated?  Manual
updates do not appeal to me in the least.
