VDQ : upgrade 3.0 -- which way?

[Beartooth]

	My hard copy seems to envision my doing apt-get update and 
apt-get upgrade as soon as 3.0 is installed; but I seem to recall some 
discussion here to the effect that something called yum is preferable 
now. 

	Unfortunately, that discussion was way beyond my still very
rudimentary grasp of linux. The only thing I know about yum is how to 
spell it -- and that vague recollection. Is it accurate? I.e., do I 
understand aright that it's what I should use?

	If so, where do I learn how??
