Interesting. CentOS 5 was supposed ti be  based on Fedora Core 6 work so
now I wonder just what the difference(s) are?

The difference is that RHEL (the sources that Centos recompiles) cares enough about their user base to maintain a stable kernel interface for the life of the distribution version - which is much longer than fedora's. The down side is that applications don't get version upgrades as the distro version ages, just security and bugfix updates.

That depends on the applications themselves. Some of the desktop applications in particular do get version upgrades too.
