Upgrading from RedHat 7.2 to 7.3 ... what's the best approach?

I'm a little hesitant about screwing around with my redhat 7.2 install as I have it working properly...but if I decide to upgrade, what should I do? After googling around, I have found that fewer problems seem to occur when upgrading from a cd (rather than up2date)...is this accurate.

If anyone has some tips/gotchas, I would be most appreciative!

Now despie naccad's success I would always backup anything important, as I have upgraded machines via CD and had various problems, then again the vast majority went fine.
