After installing system-summary via yum:

Gotta love things that make themselves available through gnome menus

No need to install anything:

Applications > System Tools > System Monitor, go to the System tab.

A 'System Monitor' is not what one would expect to be the source for what operating system is installed... it just happens to include this tab because it was apparently not available elsewhere and got stuffed into that tool.

Do you open the Task Manager as the primary source for info about which OS you have installed in the Windows world? No, you open the System control panel (the most centralized source of information regarding the system and hardware that exists there).

'About this computer' is sensible. Looking for your OS version in a system monitor is not (it just happens to be there).
