Why are they talking to this overblown loser anyway? What innovation is he responsible for lately? Who's venture money is he burning threw now? Gosh, I thought he collapsed on the rotting pile of other dot bomb has-beens years ago.
Right on. It installs painlessly and comes with loads of software - sure you could grab it all yourself if you wanted to - but I installed it last night and it took all of 30 minutes and most of that time was just installing stuff off the cd.
It's especially nice if you like to pick your own windowmanager like fluxbox of xfce - those come ready to use plus a bunch more.
Value is in the eye of the beholder but for me it's definitely worth it.
They have downloadable versions of a previous release. They charge for the new stuff and personally I don't have a lot of trouble with that because their installer does an excellent job. It detected all my hardware properly and installed the nvidia driver - geez, redhat, mandrake didn't do that. Plus there are admin tools that install flash, realplayer, and the java runtime plugins.

Sorry if this has already been pointed out, but try looking up 'wOOt' in their dictionary - it's not there. They suggested 'wot' or 'way-out' instead.
threw => through (before the grammarians get to it.)

I don't think the web site has screenshots of 2.8 yet. I installed it last night and it's got antialiased fonts and the whole kaboodle - looks great.
