The machine that I'm sending this from was originally installed as a 
RH7.3 machine.  It went to RH9->FC1->FC2->FC3->FC4->FC5->FC6, all 
via live yum upgrades.  

The funny thing about this procession is that (with the exception of 
FC6) I performed the upgrade after the "new" distro had already been 
EOL'ed.

I suppose I should consider myself lucky that the hard disks haven't 
failed in all this time.  The SMART data shows their total power-on 
time to be 44,455 hours (five years 27 days and counting..)
