Thanks for the Info. I may wait and skip 4.3 then.
"Skip" in which way? And why? 4.4 is just "Release 4, Update 4", while 4.3 is "Release 4, Update 3". You're not getting anything really new with 4.4, upgrading via yum from 4.3 to 4.4 is just as easy as upgrading to get security updates.
IMNSHO there's no need for waiting - you'll get CentOS 4 now with 4.3 and you will be getting CentOS 4 then with 4.4.

Hi Ralph!
I don't do yum updates on my home system due to slow (56k) Internet connect ability at this time.
Thus, I will do a full install (ater backing up) of the next release I go to. I am currently using 4.1.
If 4.4 is going to come out in the next month or so, I'll just wait for it to be rlease.
No need to do a full install, you can yum update from the DVD (I'm assuming you're going to get the ISO somewhere with a fast connection, bring it home, and go from there).
