Another Reason to Love Linux

In the Windows world, new releases are combined with big corporate ad campaigns. In the Mac world, it's a keynote filled with repeated buzzwords. But for Linux (well, Gentoo anyway), they post to their home page with a note like this:

The 2008.0 final release is out! Code-named "It's got what plants crave," this release contains numerous new features including an updated installer, improved hardware support, a complete rework of profiles, and a move to Xfce instead of GNOME on the LiveCD. LiveDVDs are not available for x86 or amd64, although they may become available in the future. The 2008.0 release also includes updated versions of many packages already available in your ebuild tree.

For those who don't get it, you should probably torrent Idiocracy ;-)
