No, I'm still downloading.. maybe I shoulda waited until it was finished before sharing the link.
It's friggin' huge.. 5 CD's. Altough I believe one of those is mostly OpenOffice, and another has various admin utilities.
It looks like aside from the new GUI, there isn't a whole helluva lot that's new. So it may not be that big a deal for me, since I hardly ever use the desktop, although I might try it out more with the new setup.
I also never got Evolution to work right on my 7.2 box.. it was bundled beginning with 7.3, and it looks like 8.0 has an even later version. So maybe it'll work this time, 'cause I'd really like to give it a try.
