Features for SuSE appear to include KDE 3.0 and a whole lot of games. Features for Mandrake appear to be a super small install and, well, stability. Sounds great to me."

At pclinuxonline.com, they are running an uncomfirmed story that Mandrake 8.2 will be released on March 18th.

Glad slashdot got the scoop before the Washington Post or the New York Times.

I'm trying to be funny sarcastic, not mean sarcastic, so nobody get too upset.

I can see announcing new releases, though I think slashdot goes overboard on that, but announcing RUMORS of a possible release? I mean, you'd think people were waiting for the new mandrake like it was a necessary transplant organ...
