4. Gentoo Linux releases 12.1 LiveDVD

5. First Look at Gnome 4

Many of us long time Gnome users ended up giving it up after the release of Gnome 3.  For me, it ended up pushing me over to the Macbook Pro.  Hopefully Gnome 4 can bring many of us back.  This article takes a look a first look at the Gnome 4 desktop.
