I woundered what version it was when I saw the news. Since I hadn't heard of a 1.0.0 release, I guessed it was that (and not 1.1.0), but I checked the homepage of xmms, and what did I find? 1.0.1 =)
This is one of the greatest things that can happend to Linux. As far as I know there are serveral things Linux doesn't handle as good as Windows, but still - Linux handles all the other things much better. The first thing is the term "User friendly". Some people says that M$ products isn't user friendly since it so instable that it simply is not friendly to the user. That is correct, but what *I* mean with user friendly is, easy enough to make my mother want to run it. Linux isn't. The second thing is drivers. For example, I haven't got my soundcard (Terratec EWS 64XL) working under Linux, which is a bit sad. The third, any one of the most important things is GAMES. Games' speed. The possobility of writing games where drivers for graphic devices exist. This must be improved. This should make more games released for Linux, and that would mean ALOT of people will move on to Linux.

1.0.0, 1.1.0 or 1.0.1. It all looks so digital
