[CentOS] New administrator and upgrading systems

Right...

>One does a 'fresh' re-install every 6 months to a year (or something like that).

Well, not quite. Although it being what it is and sometimes breaking, you
can yum upgrade it[1], but the suggested method involves using anaconda to
upgrade it, which isn't a "fresh" install unless you make it so. You can still
retain settings, it has worked for me in the past on some occasions:)
