Uh... <scratching head>...

Okay, I could see this if Redhat 7.3 had an "everything" install, and 
the debian box was something totally appless/brainless (router only?), 
but as far as either box with, say, Apache, LDAP, PHP, BIND, Sendmail, 
xinetd, ipop/map, MySQL, PostgreSQL... in one year, that's at *least* 5 
updates, no?
