Software: FreeBSD for i386 ISO 5.1 Beta
Posted by viper on Monday, May 12 @ 15:29:20 CEST

This is the ISO version of FreeBSD.
FreeBSD offers advanced networking, performance, security and compatibility features today which are still missing in other operating systems, even some of the best commercial ones.
The quality of FreeBSD combined with today's low-cost, high-speed PC hardware makes FreeBSD a very economical alternative to commercial UNIX workstations. It is well-suited for a great number of both desktop and server applications.

Software: Opera 7.11 Beta 2 for Linux

Opera Software today released Opera 7.10 for Windows and Opera 7.10 for Linux Beta with features that are not only new to Opera, but also completely new to the world of browsing. Right from the beginning, users can see the two new buttons FastForward and Rewind in the toolbar, accelerating Opera users' Web navigation. Users can also speed up researching with the completely new Notes features or view photo files with SlideShow.
With the two new buttons FastForward and Rewind, the user can sit back and let the browser anticipate where they would like to go next. FastForward was introduced as part of the Forward button in Opera 7 for Windows, but has been developed much further, resulting in two completely new buttons being added to the Opera toolbar. The FastForward and Rewind buttons are illustrated by two arrows each, either going back or forward, placed right next to the corresponding Back or Forward buttons.

Anyway, AMD64 support is coming along rapidly right now but is still not ready for public release. Neither 5.0 nor the upcoming 5.1 natively support AMD64, but 5.2 should. Keep an eye on the FreeBSD mailing lists for more info.
