Quite . . . it would be rather nice if:

1. We could have some sort of idea when 4.5 is due.

2. What specifically Linux things will be changed and/or
      improved in 4.5.

I must say, I wonder why the RunRev folk are keeping whatever is going
to be in 4.5 so close to their collective chest . . . it doesn't exactly 
help us
with any sort of forward planning.

Apple start swanking about "the next best thing" fairly early on, as
do Microsoft (the fact that, on the whole, in both cases, nothing quite 
lives
up to one's expectations is another story); while Linux distros (better not
use the "U" word) leak alpha, betas, release candidates and so on rather
like my kitchen tap.

Hey; anybody want to start a website called "RevRumors" ? :

http://www.macrumors.com/

http://www.macbidouille.com/

and have fun getting threatening letters, legal injunctions and so forth 
. . .  :)

Meanwhile, Peter, I wish you all the best in your physical exercise.

I find I do my most creative programming when I am quite a 'safe distance'
from a computer, and preferably, out in the fresh air. Either that or
tucked up in bed and off on that mysterious "astral plain" where all
computer programming problems seem to be resolved with little or
no fuss . . .  :)
