There are 3 current releases of CentOS (for i686):
CentOS 2 = RHEL2.1AS
CentOS 3 = RHEL3AS
CentOS 4 = RHEL4AS
If you go by the major number (2, 3, 4) then you will get the best
version for that major release. That is all you need to worry about
unless you want to be a beta tester. Beta versions are not normally
considered stable.
As for stability, that is a subjective question. RedHat no doubt think
every version they push out is stable, but every version still has some
bugs of some kind. Unless you hit a specific bug or stability problem
then you just want the latest of 2 3 or 4 which will be the most
_secure_ (ie, will have the required security & bugfix updates).
