Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here, but it seems to me that you're
saying "an old version of RHEL feels old".  The current version of RHEL is
5, released in April of 2007.  It's based on FC6, which was released around
10 months ago.

I'm not sure it's at all fair, even in the fast-moving computer industry,
to call either of these "ancient".
