Linux Mint 5 x64 Edition released!

,----[ Quote ]
| Linux Mint is proud to announce that Linux Mint 5 Elyssa is now available on
| AMD64 for 64 bit processors.
|
| In the future the x64 edition will be released at the same time as the Main
| and Light editions.
|
| The purpose of the x64 edition is to offer the same desktop features as the
| Main edition but in a 64 bit environment. It aims to be as similar to the
| Main edition as possible. Due to the nature of its architecture, its package
| base and its origins it defers in the following ways:
|
| * Linux Mint x64 Edition was forked from Ubuntu Hardy as opposed to
| Ubuntu Edgy for the Main Edition,
| * Linux Mint x64 Edition comes with a java plugin implemented by OpenJDK,
| as opposed to Sun for the Main Edition.
| * Linux Mint x64 Edition comes with Xchat instead of Xchat-Gnome
| * Linux Mint x64 Edition comes with Flash 9 instead of Flash 10

10/18/08 - Parted Magic 3.1

,----[ Quote ]
| Parted magic released with only minor changes from RC1. One of the most
| important new developments is the HDD version. This is a new concept in
| rescue/partitioning environments. It's basically a copy and paste USB
| distribution for system admins and is the future of the Parted Magic project.
| Version 4.0 will be largely based on Slackware Linux and will offer package
| management and most things you would expect from a small rescue environment.
| My honest opinion is the death of CDs and DVDs is closer than most people
| think and the dominance of flash media with RW is the future of any system
| admins toolbox. This forum post describes the new HDD version. In the weeks
| to come, new documents will be written to describe its uses in better detail.
| The 3.x series might be the last of the RO "Live" media environments for
| Parted Magic which a large number of distributions do better than us anyway.
