New Releases for Debian and SUSE 223
linuxbeta writes "With the recent SUSE LINUX 9.3 Live DVD ISO released, we get a sneak peek. (screenshots) of this much anticipated OS update. Cool updates in 9.3 includes Firefox 1.0, OpenOffice.org 2.0, Gimp 2.2, Beagle. Xen, VoIP client, and more." And while Debian's Sarge isn't here yet (give Branden Robinson a chance to find his plush new office!), wrochal points out that the fifth update to Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 ("Woody" ) has arrived. 3.0 (r5) "mainly adds security updates to the stable release, along with a few corrections to serious problems." Also, four packages were removed, three for license violations.

Yes, but Firefox 1.0 is positively outdated. So it averages out okay.

Ah, now that makes sense. I've heard a lot of people say that Debian lacks polish.

Yeah, but the icon is a picture of Tux in front of an iMac, so that evens it out.
