Master of Reality:
they claim you will get it a week before its official release.... who knows when the official release will be (it could be in august or later for all we know). My suspicions are that they will jump to version 9 when they include the 2.6.* kernel.

slave:
I don't really care about RH9 anymore because I installed mandrake 9.1 and I think it's good enough to use as my main operating system.  You guys should try it out!
