Highlights of this release include KDE 3.0.1, GNOME 1.4.1 (with new additions like Evolution), the long-awaited Mozilla 1.0 browser, support for many new filesystems like ext3, ReiserFS, JFS, and XFS, and support for several new SCSI and ATA RAID controllers. Remember to buy your copies at http://store.slackware.com. List of download mirrors here. Public releases of Mozilla AND Slackware in the same month, I'm so happy I've soiled myself."

    That was very clever. Of course, I noticed my mistake right away and immediately corrected it by replying to my own message. But you're a troll, so you don't actually *read* anything on this site.

    I'm pretty sure I reached the karma cap a long time ago (of course I may not have, in which case it further demonstrates that I could not care less about my karma). Anyway, sorry I offended you by correcting my original broken link. If I was a moderator, I wouldn't have modded me up for EITHER post, but they did, and I have no control over that.
