For those of you souring at the thought of MS next OS (XP) and looking for an alternative, you can check out Linux Mandrake 8 Beta 2.

MandrakeSoft is proud to announce that the beta 2 of the upcoming Mandrake Linux 8.1, "Raklet", has hit the mirrors. Sticking to the path opened by the 8.0 version, Mandrake Linux 8.1 Beta 2 provides a bunch of innovations, more user-friendly and breathtaking tools, and --as always with a Mandrake distribution-- highly up-to-date software. However this beta release is not intended for a daily use, it is issued for debugging and test purpose. Please keep in mind that it is an experimental distribution.

Everyone is welcomed to participate in the Beta test cycle.
