Don't you know? Linux isn't cool anymore. Any talk of it on Slashdot is immediately marked as a being a troll by being a Linux zealot. You should be installing WinXP, not compiling Linux.

While this is not the response i was looking for, your post there, shows best how the Linux community has gone down hill.

A bunch of rude children who like to pretend they know more then the people asking questions.

With that attitude and telling people to 'go away' you impeded any potential advancement of the OSS cause in general.

Too bad your attitude is rather common these days, unlike what it was years past, when it was a more friendly community bent on sharing and assistance.

As a disclaimer, I've more then likely done more PAID development work to date then you will in your life time. I was not asking this question on MY behalf, but potential users that discover 'a new version is out, do i have to upgrade'.. I prefer not to tell them the same old reasons not too again, so i was looking for perhaps some other tactics to try.

And they will find out, it will be covered in most of the simi-techie mags next month. You can count on it. Then the questions will start, again.

But alas, you have your head up your ass and only compound the marketing problem of the OSS community at large

You know, the only thing I hate more than idiots who miss the point are the high-and-mighty people who claim that they are so infallible and well-educated that everyone who disagrees must be an idiot.
