Agreed, though I run the risk and often just keep two.  Well, I'll
remove the third after the newest seems to work well, after a few days.

The more you have, the longer updates take, too.  There's more files to
consider.  My system's not too nippy (500 MHz Celeron), and I can notice
it's slower to do a "rpm -Uvh something.rpm" when I have three or more
kernels.
