So you have heard that the latest and greatest version of the Linux kernel – 2.6 has been released. What’s it all about? Well, 2.6 has been all about the server and making it more scalable and making it more enterprise-level. Linux has broken so many barriers with 2.6 – it can handle upto 64 GB of RAM ! There are goodies for ordinary users as well – the O(1) scheduler and other enhancements have made Linux faster than ever before! Your KDE or GNOME desktop will now be much more responsive.

Actually, I lied. The latest stable version of the Linux kernel is 2.6.1 and 2.6.2rc3 has been released. Linus Torvalds and Andrew Morton are already looking forward to Linux Kernel 2.7 !
