NetBSD 4.0 released: thanks for bluetooth!
NetBSD 4.0 is finally out, and, if you don't know what that is, sit tight and we'll get to that later. For those that know all about NetBSD, here's the lowdown on the latest major update to the operating system:

The 4.0 release includes support for version 3 of the Xen virtual machine monitor (yawn). It also includes support for Bluetooth (welcome to 2005) and many new device drivers and embedded platforms based on ARM, PowerPC and MIPS CPUs.

It's available at various sites around the web, and you can get many of the popular NetBSD programs through pkgsrc, the NetBSD Packages Collection.
