a quick sumup:
synaptic is a nice GUI for apt.
up2date is only usefull to show pending updates
yum is only usefull after fc2 (IMO), unless you are dealing with multilib.
So for fc<3, use apt. For fc>3, use yum. If x86_64, use yum.
That is the simple explanation.
I disagree, of course, if you're looking for repositories you're going to have more luck finding yum repositories for FC-2.

Another difference: in synaptic you can browse for packages. AFAIK you can't do that with yum.
