For those interested, I switched a SL 6 desktop I use at my desk to CentOS 6 
without a hurt...

Did :

Downloaded centos-release-6-0.el6.centos.5.x86_64.rpm and 
redhat-logos-60.0.14-10.el6.noarch.rpm from CentOS repo

rpm -e --nodeps sl-release redhat-logos
rpm -hiv redhat-logos-60.0.14-10.el6.noarch.rpm 
centos-release-6-0.el6.centos.5.x86_64.rpm

yum update

reboot, and voilà

The only thing I noted, is that the boot screen (the image that covers the 
init scripts) is still centos, but the shutdown one is centos'

Have fun and thanks for that great long awaited release.

Regards,
