"To find out about what is new and can be tested, read down through this News Blog. One new feature is the improved handling of frugal installs -- use the Universal Installer and you will be offered to install into a folder.
Basically, whatever area of interest you have, web browsing, chat, multimedia, installation, boot media, etc., give this pup a go and let me know the outcome."
