* Fast reboot feature
We had Fast Reboot for 2008.11 - though now enabled
by default I think.

Sorry, but the improvements to the totem plugins did not make this
release. In GNOME 2.26, the totem-basic-plugin has been replaced
with a much better set of plugins which will all be enabled once
GNOME 2.26 is available.
In GNOME 2.24, the basic plugin does support most free media
formats.

Add some more info on CUPS, printer support, and the new Nvidia 180.xx driver
support for Nvidia Quadro 5800 video support.
I can also think of Codeina, multimedia codec support, and Compiz features.
A few other things are out-of-the-box ATI Radeon 48xx support (which I've
