I forget where I read it (/.?) but I came across something where some guy
was saying that he was surprised at a) how short the interval was between
Mandrake 7.0 Beta and 7.0 release and b) how much difficulty he had with 7.0
release; he felt that the two were causally related. This was before I had
gotten my hands on 7.0.2, and my 7.0.2 experience wasn't too cool.
