We know how it is. You like to hack. You like to develop software -- or maybe you just like to watch developing software coming together (there are stranger hobbies). You've been known to play with alpha software. Yes, yes, you truly live on the edge.But you're an adult (well, you know, mostly. Chronologically, anyway). You have responsibilities. You need a stable environment for your data. Your documents. Your pictures. Your.. ahem... multimedia collection.
You can have the best of both worlds. The openSUSE project has announced the arrival of the Factory LiveCDs. Whether you're a hacker or just curious about what's going to unfold with openSUSE 11.0 later this year, this is a great way to get a sneak peek without disturbing your desktop.
The liveCDs are, according to Stephan Kulow, xdelta files running in conjuction with the most recent liveCDs, and come in both GNOME and KDE varieties.
Still not quite ready to test? You haven't too long to wait. OpenSUSE 11.0 is scheduled for public release on June 19 of this year.
[Thanks, Zonker!]
